Another January addition, Myles Peart-Harris has been demonstrating his ability in the final third ever since joining Oxford with four shots in four starts. The attacking midfielder was also given the opportunity to start as a striker away at Coventry and so there’s every chance Matt Bloomfield opts to give him that role again, further increasing the likelihood of him getting a sight of goal.
As impressive as Sunderland’s season has been, it has been built on their excellent home form whilst they’ve struggled away from the northeast. The Black Cats have shipped 16.36 shots per game on the road and when they hosted League One Huddersfield in the EFL Cup, they allowed them 11 attempts on their goal therefore Oxford should get some joy in attack.
