- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ruben Rodrigues made 6 appearances and scored 9 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

- 35' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

- 58' The whistle greets Liam Sercombe as he departs to be replaced by Josh Harrop.
- 61' A meaty challenge results in booking for Curtis Davies on 61.
- 66' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Tom Bradbury suffering a number of foals already.
- 67' Will Goodwin is replacing Mark Harris for the Oxford United FC side.
