Oxford United welcome Hull City for a crucial encounter with ramifications at both ends of the table on Friday (kick-off 15:00 BST).
The U's had been on a four-game unbeaten run (W3 D1) before their defeat to Southampton last time out and are 23rd but just one point adrift of safety.
The play-off chasing Tigers beat bottom side Sheffield Wednesday before the international break but have lost three of their past five games.
Hull are fifth, three points clear of seventh-placed Wrexham and five points behind the automatic promotion places.
- Oxford have won just one of their previous six league games against Hull (D1 L4), though it did come in this exact fixture last season (1-0).
- Following their 3-2 win in August, Hull are looking to complete their third league double over Oxford United after 1965-66 and 1975-76.
- Oxford are unbeaten in their past three home league games (W2 D1), having failed to win (D2 L3) or score in any of their previous five at the Kassam Stadium.
- No side has won more away games in the Championship than Hull City this season (10), though the Tigers have lost two of their past three on the road.
- Oliver McBurnie has been involved in more goals than any other Championship player this season (20 – 13 goals, 7 assists). He's the first Hull player to reach 20 goal involvements in a Championship campaign since Jarrod Bowen in 2019-20 (23).
