Oxford United visit Bristol City tomorrow (3:00pm kick off) looking to pick up their first points on the road as they take on former U's boss Liam Manning's Robins at Ashton Gate. United have sold their full allocation of around 3,600 tickets, so there promises to be a great atmosphere in the away end.
City sit 17th in the Championship, having won just once in the league - a 4-3 home win over Millwall on 17 August - and will hope to get back to winning ways after suffering back-to-back 3-0 defeats at Derby County and Blackburn Rovers.
OXFORD UNITED
United have doubts over influential midfielder Cameron Brannagan, who went off injured during last Saturday's 1-0 win over Stoke City. Brannagan's replacement, Rúben Rodrigues, was instrumental in setting up Idris El Mizouni's winning goal and he stands by should Brannagan not play.
United Head Coach Des Buckingham said: "To take a sell-out 3,500 fans to Bristol, for our fans to get behind us, back us and enjoy themselves, we'll try and do everything we can to make sure our fans have a very enjoyable day.
"I know there are different narratives to this game. The most important thing is that we continue to do what we've done so far this year... If we can continue showcasing what we have done, and the players have been good again this week, hopefully that momentum takes us into this away game on the back of two good home games, and we can put ourselves in the best position come Saturday from kick off to be ready and right and then throughout the game be ready and right to make sure that when we finish we're in the best spot possible."

BRISTOL CITY
City feature a number of former Oxford players among their ranks, although Marcus McGuane has yet to make his Robins debut and Rob Atkinson is out injured, although close to a return. Rob Dickie hasn't featured since going off during the 1-1 draw with Coventry City on 24 August, although Mark Sykes has played in all five league games so far.
Manning said: “Oxford have started the season well. They’re obviously a club I know well, and players that I know well. They’ve stepped up and done well so far.”
