🗞️ Team News: Oxford United

Tyler Goodrham (Injury to the ankle) and Brian De Keersmaecker (Shoulder injury) won’t be able to feature for Oxford United boss Matt Bloomfield.

📋 Team News: Sheffield Wednesday

We believe The Owls could decide to make use of a 3-5-2 formation, settling for Murphy Cooper, Liam Palmer, Gabriel Otegbayo, Max Lowe, Sean Fusire, Nathaniel Chalobah, Jaden Heskey, Jarvis Thornton, Omotayo Adaramola, Jamal Lowe and Jerry Yates.

🧠 Prediction

For this match, we think that Oxford United will most probably be able to create a good number of chances & successful shots on target.

In contrast, Sheffield Wednesday won’t find it easy to get shooting opportunities - but, we do see them being dangerous at times.

We’re predicting a comfortable 3-1 winning score for Oxford United at the end of the 90 minutes.
