Oxford United, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 3-1 away defeat by Bristol Rovers will have left the Oxford United squad feeling a little deflated.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 10 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 10 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 games at The Kassam Stadium.
In terms of results, it's been a bit of a mixed bag for Oxford Utd recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games.
Goalscorer Mark Harris will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 4 goals in his last 6 league matches for Oxford United.
Portsmouth, Recent FormPortsmouth have set themselves up nicely for this match by securing a 1-0 away win against Port Vale in their previous league match.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 5 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 6 and seen valuable points lost. When playing away from home, they have scored in 5 of their last 6 games and are on a run of 2 consecutive clean sheets.
They've had a reasonably strong showing playing away from home this season, having been unbeaten in 13 of their 15 league games on the road this season.
With 3 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league, Paddy Lane has given the travelling Portsmouth support something to shout about on the road.
In the previous encounter between these sides, both teams grabbed goals, with the match finishing in a 1-1 draw.
Goals should be on the cards for Pompey in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against Oxford Utd in their last 10 meetings together.
It has been a share of the points the last 2 times these sides have met in the league, with the game ending in a draw on both occasions; that said, Portsmouth may be feeling slightly more positive, having built up a run of 3 matches undefeated against their opponents.
With no real injury worries, Oxford Utd manager Des Buckingham will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Portsmouth manager John Mousinho has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
