Liam Manning takes charge of the U's for the first time as they look to turn around a run of ten games without a win.
TEAM NEWS
The U's are without James Henry who tweaked a hamstring in the game against Derby last weekend. Billy Bodin is also ruled out after suffering a slight setback in training this week while Ateef Konate remains a doubt.
However the U's have trained well under their new management team as Liam told us.
"It has been good. We knew about the players here and had seen they way the team has been playing. Training has been really compeitive. They will all want to be involved on Saturday and we have said right from the start that everyone starts with the same opportunity to impress us and show that they should be in that starting eleven. And if not then you still play a part and do all you can to support and help."

THE OPPOSITION
Morecambe are without a win in five games after a 4-1 defeat at home to Charlton in midweek
“You have to pick yourself up and be ready to go again" Manager Derek Adams said. "I thought Charlton played very well on the night and deserved to win. We got it back to 3-1 and had a glimmer of hope but they scored a soft goal to make it 4-1 and the game was finished after that. We have to be better in our duels, win more one on ones.
“The players are doing their best and giving their all. We are three points behind Oxford and have to try to get the better of them, play as though it’s our last game. We have nine games now until the end of the season and each one is huge for us.”
