Team News

Blackburn
Oxford
  • Centre-back Hayden Carter hobbled off late on against Norwich last weekend, but he is expected to be fit enough to start against Oxford United.
  • Yuki Ohashi's substitute heroics should be enough to earn the Japanese forward a spot in the starting XI on Saturday.
  • Des Buckingham may opt for one change when his men travel to Ewood Park with winger Matt Phillips replacing Przemyslaw Placheta.
  • Owen Dale and Will Goodwin are both set to miss out for Oxford United due to ongoing injury problems.

Prediction

  • A late goal from substitute Yuki Ohashi proved enough to earn Blackburn a point against Norwich at Carrow Road last time out after goals from Josh Sargent and Borja Sainz put them 2-1 down.
  • John Eustace's men have four points on the board from two games so far and will expect to keep their unbeaten streak alive against a newly-promoted side on Saturday.
  • Oxford United produced a noble performance against Coventry last weekend with only a late mistake from midfielder Will Vaulks costing them a point at the Coventry Building Society Arena.
  • Nevertheless, Des Buckingham and his side will take plenty of confidence from their standards during the opening weekends of the campaign.
