Spalding United vs Oxford CityPrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Two teams that began with a win and a clean sheet meet at the Sir Halley Stewart Playing Field. Spalding United took the points away from home with a 2-0 and sit third, while Oxford City settled their opening fixture 1-0 in front of their own supporters and are ninth, level on three points. Three goals between them and none conceded: the opening round was mostly a story of two back lines holding firm. Spalding now play their first match at home after that away success, Oxford City make their first trip after winning at their own ground. Across the division the return so far is 2.25 goals per game, a benchmark that argues against wide scorelines this early in National League North, with six places but no points between the sides. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
