This is a match that both clubs really need to get three points from. Oxford United are 22nd in the Championship and are home to Wrexham who are seventh in the table. Can the Red Dragons get three vital points? Read our match prediction below.

Oxford United are five points from safety but they do have a game in hand. Their hopes of avoiding relegation to League One suffered a major blow at the weekend with a 1-0 loss at Derby County.

That ended a run of three league games without defeat for United with five points being earned. They have won six of their 21 home league games this season and have gone five without defeat. Five of their last six at home have seen less than 2.5 goals scored.

Wrexham are only a couple of points adrift of the final promotion play-off position. The weekend saw them get a vital 2-0 home win over Stoke City but they had only earned one point from their previous three fixtures.

Eight away league games have been won by them this season but six lost. Only one of their last four away league fixtures has been won. Their last two games have seen less than 2.5 goals scored and we go for that stat to come up here.

Our Oxford United vs Wrexham Prediction

A loss for either club in this match would be a terrible result. Oxford are battling hard to avoid being relegated but after some good results, they lost at Derby on Saturday. Their home form has been good of late but with not that many goals being scored.

Wrexham have been in poor form of late but breathed life into their play-of hopes with a big win at the weekend. They badly need an away win to boost their promotion challenge. Our Oxford United v Wrexham prediction is less than 2.5 goals.
