Oxford - Stockport County

Oxford United look to maintain their resilience as they prepare to host Stockport County on 27 October 2026 for matchday 9 of League One. The home side enters this encounter riding a steady wave of form, having secured a 2-1 victory over Wigan Athletic recently, though they were held to a goalless stalemate by Bradford City in their most recent outing. Their ability to find the net has been consistent, punctuated by a commanding 4-0 win against Leicester City earlier in the season.

Stockport County arrive at Kassam Stadium with significant momentum of their own, currently unbeaten in their last four league fixtures. Their recent 2-0 win over Doncaster Rovers and a hard-fought draw against Notts County demonstrate a defensive solidity that will test the hosts. The two clubs last met in League Two back in March 2011, making this a rare reunion for sides looking to stamp their authority on the current campaign.
