Oxford – Exeter preview: latest form, news, and potential lineups

Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for this duel, including our predicted Oxford vs Exeter lineups.

Oxford

Oxford put up another impressive display last weekend on their visit to struggling Fleetwood. The U’s cruised to an easy 3-0 win after dominating from start to finish. Continued to be very effective in using the overlapping runs and 74% of their goals so far have been scored after crosses. 

Oxford sit in the top 3 and their confidence is very high right now. 

Starting striker Mark Harris will sit out this game due to a ban. Leigh served his suspension though so he will be an option. 

Still missing the injured playmaker Browne and 2 fringe forwards who also remain in rehabilitation. 

Predicted Lineup: 

Beadle (GK), Long, Moore, Thorniley, Brown, McGuanne, Brannagan, Mills, Rodrigues, Edwards & Bodin

Exeter

On Tuesday Exeter rested 9 regulars when they hosted Reading in the EFL Trophy. Still, nothing can excuse the 0-9 defeat that was suffered to the horror of coach Caldwell and the few fans in attendance. 

The Grecians are playing much better in the league so far though. Also, back on New Year’s Day they edged Oxford 1-0 at the Kassam Stadium. 

Continue to have 8 players nursing injuries. However, 5 of those are back in training and some might make the bench. The useful midfielder Kite is one of those and if he can play a part this will be a huge boost. 

Predicted Lineup: 

Sinisalo (GK), Sweeney, Aimson, Hartridge, Mitchell, Trevitt, Carroll, Jules, Cole, Cox & Wildschut 

​Starting Lineups

The teams usually announce their starting lineups one hour before the start of the game.
