Match Analysis
This is a crucial relegation battle between two out-of-form sides. Oxford United have the league's second-worst attack and have failed to score in three of their last five, while Blackburn have only one win in their last five and have also struggled for goals. Both teams have a high rate of low-scoring matches, and recent head-to-heads have been tight, with three of the last four producing under 2.5 goals. Expect a cautious, tense affair with few clear chances, where a single goal could decide it.
