Oxford City form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Vanarama National League South travels is 6 wins, 5 draws and 5 defeats. Oxford are enjoying a nice run from their away games now, having played seven in a row without losing.

Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. Oxford City goalkeeper Adnan Kanuric is eager to challenge this, with his 234 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.

Oxford are travelling after their nice 3-0 home win in the match against Worthing (placed 6th).

Before that, Oxford City secured a home win against Welling United with the score 3-0.

Goal-happy betting people should observe that 9 of this club's 10 most recent league matches have ended with three goals or more.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Oxford City manager Jenkins as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Dartford.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Oxford have scored 18 goals in 16 league games away. As opposed to that, Oxford City have seen the ball go into their own net 19 times on the road.
