Herbie Kane is in the middle of a three-match suspension and will miss out, while Alex Rodriguez and Daniel Agyei both remain sidelined for Oxford. Josh Windass could come back into the side, while Callum Paterson will be hoping to earn a recall. However, Darren Moore might be temped to go with the same XI that started against Plymouth.
Two top-six hopefuls go head-to-head at the Kassam Stadium, with seventh-placed Oxford hoping to move six points clear of eight-placed Sheffield Wednesday. But while the U's ended 2021 in excellent form, they've been anything but in the New Year, and go in search of their first League One victory since beating AFC Wimbledon over the festive period. Meanwhile, the Owls hadn't won themselves since December before collecting a priceless three points against Plymouth last weekend to leave them firmly in touch with the playoffs. Another win here will move Wednesday level on 43 points with Oxford and potentially just goal difference outside of the top-six. 1:1
