When Oxford United visits Coventry on Friday night, they’ll be hoping to build on their strong start to the campaign.
The U’s defeated Norwich 2-0 to start the new season, and they then defeated Peterborough by the same score to advance in the Carabao Cup.
After suffering a defeat at Stoke on their Championship debut, the Sky Blues triumphed 1-0 over Bristol City under Liam Manning in the Cup.
Mark Robins made nine changes for his trip to Gloucestershire, while Des Buckingham made eight changes for the Posh match.
With Dane Scarlett’s arrival on loan from Tottenham, he might be able to make his Oxford debut.
This summer, Coventry signed major names like Brandon Thomas-Asante and Jack Rudoni.
The Sky Blues defeated the opposition 6-2 at the Ricoh Arena during their FA Cup matchup with this team the previous season. On their prior league trip to Coventry, though, the U’s prevailed.
Sam Long, Will Vaulks, Cameron Brannagan, Idris El Mizouni, Malcolm Ebiowei, Tyler Goodrham, Mark Harris, Joe Bennett, Ciaron Brown, Elliott Moore, and Jamie Cumming are the players predicted to start.
Oxford United 1-0 Coventry City is the prediction.
