Oxford United welcome Wrexham to the Kassam on Tuesday night (19:45 BST) for a game with huge implications in both the relegation battle and the play-off race.

After Saturday's 1-0 defeat at Derby the U's are five points from safety with three games to go and Matt Bloomfield's men could be relegated to League One as soon as Wednesday night, should they lose to Wrexham while Blackburn and West Brom pick up wins and Charlton avoid defeat.

The Red Dragons lie seventh, two points behind Hull City in the final play-off spot, and with a slightly better goal difference, having beaten Stoke 2-0 at the Stok Cae Ras last time out.

  • Oxford have lost each of their past four home league games against Wrexham, with this the first time they're hosting them since November 2005 (0-3).
  • Wrexham are unbeaten in their past 13 Football League games against Oxford United (W10 D3), their joint-longest run against a single side in their history (also 13 vs New Brighton between 1930 and 1936).
  • Oxford are unbeaten in their past five home league games (W3 D2), picking up as many wins in that time as in their first 16 matches of 2025-26 (D6 L7).
  • Wrexham, who failed to score in their last away league game at Birmingham (losing 2-0), have only once this season gone successive league matches on the road without scoring, doing so against Portsmouth and Ipswich in November in consecutive goalless draws.
  • Just three of Oxford's past nine home league goals have come from open play, with them also scoring two from corners, two from free kicks and two penalties.
