With the Bulls travelling to the Kassam Stadium on Saturday, Oxford skipper Jake Wright says he expects a battle.
After a late defeat to Crewe in their previous match, Wright told their official site that they would have to concentrate for longer against the Bulls: "We expect another difficult game. I wouldn't expect them to be as good on the ball as Crewe who are perhaps the best footballing side in the league, but they are fighting for their lives to stay in this league and it will be hard. We just have to make sure that we do it for ninety minutes, not thirty."
The Bulls visit Oxfordshire under similar circumstances to last season's trip, having again won all their away matches in the new year prior to the game.
