Wycombe’s five-game home league streak was ended by Sheffield Wednesday, who defeated them 1-0 in their most recent match. Prior to Sheffield Wednesday’s defeat, they also won three straight games at home in League One. Starting with their midweek match against Oxford, they will be determined to continue that trend.
Despite the fact that they remained in eighth place following Saturday’s action, sixth-place Barnsley’s victory over Accrington Stanley increased the gap between them and the top six teams from two to five points. The Chairboys’ three victories and one draw in their last four matches against Oxford, including a 1-0 victory earlier this season, will give them confidence heading into Tuesday’s match.
Prediction
We believe Oxford United is capable of defeating Wycombe Wanderers by scoring at least one goal, though it may not be as many as they have scored against them.
At the end of the game, Wycombe Wanderers will have a 2-1 advantage thanks to both teams scoring. This is our prediction. I can’t wait to see how this one plays out.
We say: We anticipate a close match between Wycombe Wanderers and Oxford United, with the two teams only separated by three points, which could result in a tie.

Sam Vokes may make a comeback to the starting lineup and take the lead for the hosts after dropping out of the team during the defeat to Sheffield Wednesday.
Due to injuries, the visitors will not be able to use the services of Marcus Browne, James Henry, Alex Gorrin, or Sam Baldock.
On Saturday, Oxford switched to a back three, allowing Hull City loanee Brandon Fleming to make his first start for the club. Fleming is likely to feature a left wingback once more, and Robinson is expected to use the same setup.
