PREVIEW Bolton Wanderers v Oxford United

Oxford United travel to Bolton Wanderers on Saturday in Sky Bet League 1 (3pm)

TEAM NEWS

The U's are without Matty Taylor and Billy Bodin who are both suspended for the next two games. Manager Karl Robinson is also subject to a touchline ban after a fourth yellow card of the season. Craig Short, Leon Blackmore-Such and John Mousinho will be in the dug out for the match.

James Henry returns to the squad after injury but the U's will assess one or two knocks picked up in the 1-1 draw at Portsmouth on Tuesday evening including Cameron Brannagan and Marcus Browne.

Sam Baldock, Josh Murphy, Yanic Wildschut and Oisin Smyth are all missing through injury.

THE OPPOSITION

Icelandic striker Jon Dadi Bodvarsson scored a late winner against Burton in midweek and then had an interesting comparison when asked about scoring goals:

“It is like the ketchup effect, you try and get everything out of it all at once and it doesn’t happen. If you keep at it, eventually ist comes out of the bottle. Hopefully now we will continue to score. We need goals, everyone knows it, if we are going to be up there. I think it is just important to keep focussed and keep believing.”

“Hopefully now we can keep that run going against Oxford, and to still be at home as well is good because we are always very confident playing here. We are in the top six. There is a long time left but it is a good sign. The most important thing now is to keep consistent and keep going.”
