- 30' Oxford United FC is showing some good football. However, Oxford United FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 35' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
