The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Fleetwood Town are in the 10th position while the guesting Oxford United worry at 23rd.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Fleetwood Town form and stats
Fleetwood Town have played 5 League One games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-1-1 (wins-draws-losses).
The Fleetwood goalkeeper Jayson Leutwiler is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 197 minutes without conceding a goal in the League One.
A nice win for Fleetwood last time playing, versus Shrewsbury Town. That was also a home game and the match ended 1-0 with Ched Evans scoring for the victors. In the preceding match a 2-0 victory visiting Gillingham.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Fleetwood have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 14 matches with the results: Won six, drawn six and lost two.
Fleetwood are traveling soon after this match as the League One match at Charlton Athletic awaits in three days.
The Fleetwood Town fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 5 matches. From these home matches, Fleetwood have conceded only 3 goals.
Oxford United form and stats
1-0-4 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Oxford United in their League One matches away. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on K. Robinson, the Oxford manager, as the last three away games were defeats.
Two away games in a row for Oxford, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-2 versus Charlton Athletic in the League One. Before that, Oxford secured a home win against Milton Keynes Dons with the score 3-2.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Oxford playing away and similar expectations, we found eleven relevant matches. Results were five Oxford United wins, three draws and three defeats.
A quick return to home after this game, as Oxford are hosting Rochdale in the League One only three days away.
Oxford United have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 5 league away games 5 goals have been scored. The Oxford manager K. Robinson has some worries about the defense as 10 goals have been conceded in these travels.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: eight wins for Fleetwood, two draws and zero wins for Oxford United. Over 2,5 goals: four times; under 2,5 goals: six games.Top Goalscorers
