Venue: The Kassam Stadium (12500 seats)

The League One league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. Oxford United and Crewe Alexandra are placed 12th and 15th respectively.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

W L D L W

Oxford United form and stats

Oxford United's first League One home game here at The Kassam Stadium ended in defeat. Last season their home statistics were 11 wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats from 17 matches.

It's back home for Oxford, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Accrington Stanley away with the result 4-1. James Henry and Matty Taylor (2) found the net in that victory. Preceding that match was a defeat to Sunderland (0-2).

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Oxford's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played four games, won three matches, drawn one and lost zero.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Oxford United, as the EFL Trophy home game vs Bristol Rovers is only three days away.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Oxford United at home in the league. 0 on target and 2 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.

Crewe Alexandra form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the League One ended in defeat. Last season Crewe Alexandra had these away match statistics: Played 18; won 7, drew 6 and lost 5.

Crewe Alexandra had fun at their own home (The Kassam Stadium) last time out, beating Milton Keynes Dons 2-0. Mikael Mandron and Oliver Finney scored. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Hull City wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Alexandra playing away, we found one game. Results were zero away wins, zero draws and one home win.

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Crewe Alexandra has managed 0 goals and let in 1 from 1 match.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last four meetings between these two teams are: one win for Oxford, one draw and two wins for Crewe Alexandra. Over 2,5 goals: two times; under 2,5 goals: two games.
