PREVIEW Oxford United v Cheltenham Town

A full guide to tonight's big match at the Kassam Stadium

Oxford United welcome Cheltenham Town to the Kassam Stadium tonight in a big game in Sky Bet League 1 (7.45pm)

The U's are outside the relegation places on goal difference but tonight is their game in hand over teams around them and a win would be a big step towards safety.

TEAM NEWS
Teenage striker Gatlin O'Donkor misses the game after limping off at Barnsley on Saturday. The forward went for scans yesterday and the U's will wait on those results before deciding whether he will also miss the remaining games, away at FGR on Saturday and at home to Accrington Stanley on the final day.

Billy Bodin returned to the squad on Saturday and is an option up front while Kyle Joseph will be keen to impress against his former club.

See Kyle and Cameron Brannagan talking about the game in the Preview Show in iFollow right now along with the full pre-match interview with Liam Manning.

THE OPPOSITION
Cheltenham guaranteed their own safety with a win over relegated FGR at home on Saturday but Boss Wade Elliott insists his team won’t be letting up in their remaining games despite securing their place in League 1 already.

"I hope everyone enjoyed Saturday” he said “because days like that come around few and far between! We've had two eyes on Oxford since the game ended on Saturday. The focus has been fully on Oxford, and you'll have seen that from the work that's been going on at the training ground.”
