Oxford United form and stats
2-2-3 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Oxford United in their League One matches away.
Oxford United are travelling again after losing away to Bristol Rovers (after extra-time) in their previous match (3-4). A huge disappointment for Oxford in their last match (vs Bristol Rovers (after extra-time)). Leading 3-1 the victory seemed almost certain, but a fascinating collapse turned everything around and in the end all was lost in a 3-4 defeat. As you can tell from the result, the match against Bristol Rovers (after extra-time) was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?
Before that, Oxford United travelled to Ipswich Town and returned home with a draw after the League One game finished 0-0.Oxford are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, three draws and three defeats. From a total of seven matches.
After this away game Oxford return home for a League One game against Fleetwood Town. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Oxford United have scored 8 goals on their travels this season, from 7 away games in the league. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 9 goals have been conceded by Oxford in these games.
