Yeovil Preview
United will look to turn the tables on famous FA Cup giant killers Yeovil Town as the Glovers visit the Kassam Stadium tomorrow (3pm)
Yeovil beat no fewer than twenty league teams in their days as non league underdogs; indeed such was their fame that subbuteo produced their only non-league team ever in their honour.
The boot is on the other foot tomorrow though as Terry Skiverton's League One side come to visit. United haven't beaten higher league opposition since thrashing struggling Swindon 1-0 in 2002 to set up a trip to Highbury, but go into the game unbeaten at home and with hopes high of a cup upset.
Jamie Cook is the only injury doubt after aggravating a foot injury in the win over Altrincham last Saturday but is expected to come through a fitness test and be available. Alfie Potter, a former star for Havant and Waterlooville in the FA Cup, is still coming back afterr glandular fever and is a doubt for a place on the bench.
The Opposition
Yeovil boss Terry Skiverton will not underestimate The U's and knows his side face a tough test:
"It's a great draw for us," he said. "It's a great draw in that they're a non-league team and it's a great draw in that they've got a good pitch and a great stadium with good facilities."
Extended match highlights will be shown on ITV1 on Saturday night and that is something else Skiverton is looking forward to.
"It's a great draw for us because we'll be getting the highlights shown and we'll be getting Yeovil back on the FA Cup map, so to speak,"
But Skiverton knows only too well that Oxford are flying high and in good form at the moment.
"They are on top of their league and they look like they're maybe nailed on for pushing on for the automatic spot for getting back into the Football League," he said.
"But it will be nice for us to go there and really enjoy ourselves against a good team and have the cameras there."
