- 在加里·罗维特的带领下,牛津队在23场联赛中只输了8场
- 桑德兰在四场比赛中都没有赢过,最后三场都输了,那场比赛只进了一个球
- 本学期,只有三支冠军球队的进球数比牛津大学的44个少
心烦意乱的黑猫队可能连续第四场失利
与谢菲尔德联队并列,桑德兰是仅有的两支在最后两周内其在锦标赛积分榜上的位置根本无法改变的球队之一,这一点正在显现。
黑猫队已经知道他们将在一段时间内获得第四名,而且他们似乎已经在展望季后赛了,里吉斯·勒布里斯在最近的比赛中休息了很多关键球员,而这种轮换让Wearside俱乐部连续输掉了三场比赛。
克里斯·里格、恩佐·勒菲和丹·尼尔只是周一对阵布莱克本的比赛中休息的一些明星球员,虽然他们以16比2击败对手,但黑猫队以1比0落败。
勇敢的牛津确保安全
最近,进球对桑德兰来说是一个真正的问题,他们在四场比赛中只进了一球,而且预计周六会有更多的球员休息,他们可能会再次失败。
牛津队仅比降级区高出三分,仍处于降级战中,这意味着他们在卡萨姆体育场的比赛比客队多得多。
在加里·罗维特的带领下,黄队表现出色,在他到来之前的21场比赛中有11场尝到了失败的滋味,在他掌舵的23场比赛中只输了8场,看到他们在对阵轮换的黑猫队时挺身而出也就不足为奇了。
- Oxford have lost just eight of their 23 league games under Gary Rowett
- Sunderland are winless in four games, losing each of the last three and scoring just one goal in that run
- Only three Championship teams have scored fewer goals than Oxford’s 44 this term
Distracted Black Cats could suffer fourth straight defeat
Alongside Sheffield United, Sunderland are one of just two teams whose position in the Championship standings can not change at all over the final two weeks, and it is showing.
The Black Cats have known they will finish fourth for a while now and it seems like they are already looking ahead to the playoffs, with Regis Le Bris resting plenty of key men in their recent outings, with that rotation seeing the Wearside club lose three straight matches.
Chris Rigg, Enzo Le Fee and Dan Neil were just some of the stars rested in Monday’s match at Blackburn and while they outshot their opponents 16-2, the Black Cats fell to a 1-0 defeat.
Gutsy Oxford out to secure safety
Goals have been a real problem for Sunderland lately, with them netting just one in a four-match winless run, and with more resting of players expected on Saturday, they could fall short once again.
Sitting just three points above the drop zone, Oxford are still in a relegation battle, meaning there is far more for them to play for at the Kassam Stadium than their visitors.
The Yellows have been excellent under Gary Rowett, losing just eight of their 23 games with him at the helm after tasting defeat in 11 of the 21 matches before his arrival, and it would be no surprise to see them rise to the occasion against the rotated Black Cats.
