Stevenage
Oxford United take part in their final scheduled home game of the season against Stevenage live on Sky Sports, as they look to try and extend the season by reaching the play-off spots.
Just two games remain in the 46-game season and Friday night’s game against Stevenage could be vital in determining whether United make it into the play-off.
Hopefully, Friday night is not the final home game of the season, but to help the team take the season into May we are calling on the Yellow Army to be All United.
Take a look at the video below to see the power that the Yellow Army gave club legends James Constable, Josh Ruffels and Sam Long during previous promotion games.
TEAM NEWS
Cameron Brannagan returned to action in Tuesday night’s defeat to Lincoln City as a second-half substitute and is expected to be fit again for Friday night should the manager wish to start him.
THE OPPOSITION
Stevenage arrive ninth in the table still with a slight chance of making the play-offs.
They have had some change in the dugout this week, with manager Steve Evans leaving to join Rotherham United.
The last meeting between the sides was in September as was a 3-1 win for the U’s away from home, with two goals from Greg Leigh, and one from Elliot Moore.

By Car
The stadium is signposted on all major approach roads to Oxford with the brown “attraction” signs and a football icon. For Satnavs, use postcode OX4 4XP. Away supporters should head for car park B1, opposite the VUE cinema (see below).
Parking
The stadium has unreserved spaces for around 2,000 cars at each game. Parking is free of charge and on a first come, first served basis. Away supporters should head for west car park B1 or B2. If these are full you will be directed to the overflow carpark which is past the VUE cinema and club shop.
Note that after most matches there is a security gate in place behind the North Stand, which prevents direct access from the away end to the East car parks
Disabled Supporters
There are specific marked bays for disabled supporters near to each stand. Click HERE for full information for supporters with disabilities or call 01865 337533.
Parking Near the Ground
There is some road parking near the ground with spaces between the stadium and the Watlington Road roundabout. All supporters attending games are asked to respect the Residents Only schemes that operate in the nearby streets and not to park on the double yellow lines on approach roads. The lines do include the grass verges along the edge of the road as well and the club will not accept responsibility for any parking tickets issued to motorists who park there.
