The League One league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. Gillingham and Oxford United are placed 6th and 18th respectively.
It's no vacation for neither Gillingham nor Oxford United as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Oxford United form and stats
