Prediction for the match between Oxford United vs Arsenal , which will take place on January 9. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Oxford plays in the third-strongest championship of England - League 1. There they are in 15th place, seven points from the relegation zone. Last round, they lost to Exeter 0:1. In The previous game, Oxford beat long-time EPL residents Charlton 2:1. But after Christmas, they failed to Ipswich Town (0:3). As for the FA Cup, they made it two rounds there. First, they beat Woking (2:1) and Exeter (4:1).

Arsenal stumbled in their first match of 2023, playing to a zero draw with Newcastle on their home field. So they allowed Manchester City to come within five points of each other, as it was before the break for the World Cup matches. Nevertheless, the Canaries have not lost in the EPL for ten games, in which there were eight victories. However, this season they are not doing well in the cups. So they dropped out of the League Cup in the third round, losing at home to Brighton (1:3). Perhaps they will drop out in the early stages of the FA Cup so they can focus entirely on the championship race.

Despite losing to Brighton in the League Cup, Arsenal has a solid and motivated bench. They will try to beat the Ligue 1 representative to prove to Mikel Arteta their worth in the fight for the championship. Therefore, Oxford will be in trouble, and they are unlikely to reach the Canaries' penalty box. But the hosts will also have to work hard not to concede many goals. For that, they will have to play on the verge of a foul.
