Season ticket holders at Pirelli Stadium haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Burton Albion languishing in the 24th position so far. The guesting Oxford United will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
- Burton Albion has the most conceded goals (45) in League One
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Burton and Oxford United.
Burton Albion form and stats
With 2 League One wins, 2 draws and 6 defeats from their home games, Burton Albion, who have the most conceded goals (45) in League One, are certainly not brimming with confidence. It's trouble wherever Burton are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Burton Albion, their manager J. Buxton and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.
Burton Albion's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 3-4 versus Wigan Athletic (placed 22nd). Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Lincoln City (1-5).
A goal frenzy last time out for Burton Albion, with a total of 7 goals in the match against Wigan Athletic. Fun stuff to watch!
A decent goal production from Burton in their home games so far, with 16 goals from 10 league matches. Burton are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (22 from 10 played).
Oxford United form and stats
3 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses. That’s the product of Oxford United playing as the away team in the League One this season.
Oxford play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-2 victory visiting Plymouth Argyle (placed 17th). Prior to that match, a home win 2-0 against AFC Wimbledon.
A new game in only three days for Oxford, the League One home match versus Doncaster Rovers. Busy days.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Oxford have scored 11 goals in 10 league games away. Oxford United have conceded 16 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
Last ten meetings between the teams: Burton won five, Oxford United won two and three draws. five games with over 2,5 goals, five matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
