TEAM NEWS
Chey Dunkley is involved for the first time after signing on loan from Kidderminster Harriers yesterday. The commanding centre-half trained yesterday and is in the squad but Head Coach Michael Appleton has some interesting choices to make:

"Competition is healthy" he told Yellow Player. "We have seen James Roberts come in and take his chance and that has given us options up front, and similarly Chey will be pushing the defenders we already have here all the way."

Roberts stands by for a full home debut after scoring on both his debut at Grimsby and league debut at York. Patrick Hoban has agreed to join the U's but will not be available until January, but with Will Hoskins back in training United are going to have plenty of attacking options soon. Hoskins may be given a Development game in the next week or so to gain sharpness.

Brian Howard is available despite breaking a bone in his hand last week. Howard will wear a protective cast to protect the injury.

See Chey Dunkley, goalkeeper Max Crocombe, Patrick Hoban and Michael Appleton give their thoughts ahead of the game in Yellow Player.

THE OPPOSITION
There is a return to the Kassam Stadium for Dannie Bulman but another former United star Sean Rigg misses out through suspension. Bulman was a star of the 2010 United promotion side and will be looking forward to his return in midfield but Rigg misses out after collecting five bookings.

United have a one hundred percent record against Wimbledon, as visiting Manager Neal Ardley is all too aware:

 I’m well aware of our record against Oxford and hopefully we can turn that around. We’ll go there all guns blazing on Saturday.”

MATCHDAY MAGAZINE
The Matchday Magazine is another great read. As well as all the usual features such as Darryl Eales, Jake Wright and Michael Appleton having their say, our big interview this week is Tareiq Homes-Dennis, and as well as Billy Jeffrey we somehow managed to get in a double page interview with Chey Dunkley. How much more up to date do you want?

All this, and much more, costs just £3 (with a copy of the Oxford Mail while stocks last) from sellers around the ground or you can download a copy from our website at www.matchdayfix.com/oufc from 1pm on Saturday. (9am for subscribers).

FIFTY/50
Be sure to pick up a Fifty/50 half time draw ticket from one of our sellers around the ground. The first prize is regularly £1,000 plus so you don’t want to miss out on what could be £1 very well spent!

WEAR YOUR COLOURS
With Christmas on the horizon why not get in early? The home and away kits are both available in the club shop in all sizes, as well as a wide range of Avec training and leisure wear. Call in for a browse in the club shop or new mobile shop which is situated outside the south stand.

ALL THE ODDS
If you fancy a flutter on Saturday’s game, then there is still time to enter the Sky Bet Transfer Fund competition and to win £5,000 for you and £250,000 for the club to spend!

League top scorer Danny Hylton is unsurprisingly short odds at 5/1 to score first, but further down the list is Johnny Mullins at an eye catching 33/1... (We realise we mention that every week, but you'll thank us when it happens!)
