League Standings

The home side have performed far below expectations this season, with a squad that could easily push for promotion. Of course that is still a possibility, being just 5 points off the playoff spots. But with the way they've performed, dropping points in games they should be winning, it looks unlikely. They've won just once in their last four league games and this is not form worthy of the playoffs.

Oxford have struggled all season long, with their only positive beinfg the performances of loanee Will Lankshear. The boys in yellow sit 23rd in the Championship and are 5 points away from safety, a big gap at this point in the season. They really need to turn it around if they are to get anything from the game.
