Oxford forwards are a serious threat to Pilgrims

FA Cup second round
3pm Saturday

Oxford have already beaten Plymouth 2-0 in Sky Bet League One this season and they can repeat the dose in the FA Cup second round.

This time United are on the road but the trip to Devon should hold few fears for them and the visitors' goals look worthy of a buy at 1.5 with Sporting Index.

Karl Robinson's side have scored three goals in five of their last eight games and forced 11 shots on target in Tuesday's 4-2 triumph over Rochdale.

They let themselves down in the previous away game, losing 2-0 at Rochdale, but before that Oxford had scored three times at Forest Green, Wycombe and Scunthorpe.

Marcus Browne is in cracking form, while Jamie Mackie and James Henry are also capable of hoovering up any opportunities which come their way against a Plymouth side who are really struggling.

Argyle, who have lost five of their last seven matches, are definitely without Ryan Edwards and Scott Wootton and there is a doubt regarding the participation of fellow centre-back Yann Songo'o.

Arsenal host Tottenham and Sporting are quoting goals at 3.1-3.3 even though eight of their last ten derbies in the Premier League have finished with no more than two goals.

Celtic are rated 1.15-1.35 favourites over Aberdeen in the Betfred Cup final at Hampden.

The Bhoys have won their last 12 meetings against Aberdeen, who have lost the last five without scoring.

Recommendation
Buy Oxford goals
