Oxford United form and stats

20 points is a decent return from 9 League One games here at The Kassam Stadium for Oxford United. The data says 6 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. Two home wins in a row for Oxford United bring valid hopes of a third.

Oxford lost their last game at Bristol Rovers (after extra-time) after a 3-4 scoreline. Did Oxford get overconfident in their match against Bristol Rovers (after extra-time)? We'll let you decide, but they did lose a 3-1 lead to end up with a 3-4 defeat. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Before that, Oxford played out a League One draw 0-0 when visiting Ipswich Town.

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 ten games, won eight matches, drawn two and lost zero.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Oxford as they have a new game in only four days, a League One match thankfully also at home. Rotherham United are visiting.

Oxford can score goals in their home matches. After 9 league matches they have found the net 18 times. From these home matches, Oxford United have conceded only 8 goals. It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.

Fleetwood Town form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Fleetwood Town so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-3 (win-draw-lose).

Home advantage was not enough for Fleetwood in their previous game, as they lost their League One-match, hosting Morecambe, 1-2. Late heartbreak for Fleetwood in the Morecambe match, as the deciding 1-2 goal came deep into overtime. Danny Andrew was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.83. The defender Andrew served one assist, hit two key passes and won 9 of 13 duels.

A 1-4 loss hosting Accrington Stanley before that.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Fleetwood when being an outsider away as they are today, we find two matches with the visitors losing one time, drawing zero and winning one game.

The schedule is very tough for Fleetwood now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A League One game at AFC Wimbledon is waiting in only four days.

Fleetwood has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 12 goals from 7 games. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Fleetwood have conceded 13 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above. It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

Head 2 Head
