Oxford United head for Accrington Stanley tonight in Sky Bet League 1.
TEAM NEWS
The U's have a doubt over Gavin Whyte who took a blow to the head in Saturday's home game against Peterborough and required stitches. The Northern Irish international will be assessed and there are protocols that will need to be followed with head injuries, but Marcus Browne and Samir Carruthers stand by as possible replacements.
Mark Sykes has now recovered from a knee injury which kept him out of the last couple of games and is ready to return to the bench with youth team centre half Nico Jones likely to step down, subject to Whyte's involvement.

THE OPPOSITION
Karl Robinson was among the spectators at Sunderland's Stadium of Light on Friday night where Stanley were 2-0 up before being pegged back to 2-2. However Stanley had endured a near seven game run without scoring before that game and boss John Coleman is hoping that their performance at Sunderland now sparks a better record in front of goal
"We have to try and build on that," he said. "We know we are capable of scoring goals because we make chances on a regular basis so maybe the pressure of not scoring for a while will be alleviated and when we get into goalscoring opportunities we won't be as tense and we will take more chances."
