Oxford United welcome Burton Albion on Saturday in Sky Bet League 1 (kick off 3pm).
Team News
United were much improved despite losing at home to Accrington Stanley on Tuesday and with Ricky Holmes still injured and Rob Hall joining long term absentees Simon Eastwood and Samir Carruthers there aren't likely to be too many changes to the squad
Holmes was in the treatment room at the training ground yesterday but is still troubled by a back problem so fellow wingers Marcus Browne and Gavin Whyte, who were impressive and both on the scoresheet on Tuesday, are expected to continue.
John Mousinho spent three seasons at Burton, captaining the side and enjoying great success and is looking forward to playing against his former side tomorrow
"It was a special time and I had a fantastic three seasons there with back to back promotions" he told the official match programme. "It’s a really special club and I left there with really fond memories and still have a place for the club in my heart.
"From our point of view the win is not a million miles off. Attacking wise we were much better on Tuesday. We got on the ball, nobody was really hiding, and we created some great situations, chances and opportunities. If you score two goals at home you can probably expect to win the games, especially from a forward’s point of view, but I think we have to keep playing that way, stay positive and be a bit more clinical and take our chances.
"“The big problem is obviously the 13 goals against. That is an issue for us and we have to cut out the defensive errors and make that that we do it quickly. Obviously we want to do it on Saturday against Burton.”

The Opposition
Burton boss Nigel Clough believe the U’s will turn results their way,:
"They are too good a team not to get results sooner rather than later," he said "I just hope it's not against us.Karl Robinson is a vastly experienced manager, with Shaun Derry with him as well. They will get it right down there.I think they are in a bit of a transition, a bit like ourselves as well.
"New players coming in in the summer, settling down with the squad, maybe expectations are quite high. I think the teams that have started so well have traded well in the summer - Peterborough United, Portsmouth, Barnsley hardly lost a player. They are the sort of settled teams that have started the season well with a few victories and the confidence that brings."
