Stats

Oxford United

  • The last time United got this far into a season without an away league win was 1967/68.
  • They are on a run of one win in ten league games, but victory tonight would take them above Walsall and out of the relegation zone.
  • Cameron Brannagan and Jamie Mackie are one booking away from a two-game suspension.

Accrington

  • Stanley have collected three points from their last seven games (D3 L4), the joint lowest total in League One over that time.
  • Their 2-2 draw at Sunderland on Friday featured Accrington’s first league goals since Boxing Day.
  • Accrington have won their last two games with the U’s, but did lose in the last meeting at the Crown Ground, a 3-1 defeat in October 2015.

Referee

Christopher Sarginson (Stasffordshire).

  • 33 games this season (4 red cards, 98 yellows).
  • He was in charge of United’s 2-1 win against Portsmouth last month.
