Burton Albion Preview – Can Brewers build on opening win?

A 1-0 win away from home at Shrewsbury Town on the opening day of the new League One season handed Burton Albion and manager, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, a good start to this new campaign which they’ll be hoping to continue on Wednesday night.

The 1st round of this season’s EFL Cup sees Burton Albion take on fellow League One outfit, Oxford United, at the Pirelli Stadium with Burton having won just two of their last seven games in the third tier while losing two of these, one of which was a resounding 4-0 defeat away at Oxford in the final game of last season.

Indeed, Burton have slipped to two defeats on the trot against their visitors and by heavy losses too, losing 4-0 and 5-1 respectively.

Our betting suggestion:

Oxford United Preview – Can U’s inflict another defeat upon Brewers?

Oxford United gained a solid point on the road in their opening game of the new League One season on the weekend when they held Cambridge United to a 1-1 draw at the Abbey Stadium, and having had the upper hand over Burton Albion in their previous two meetings, The U’s will fancy their chances here.

Oxford United reached the play-offs in League One at the end of last season only to be beaten 6-3 on aggregate by eventually promoted, Blackpool, but with just two defeats from their last 10 games in the third tier, Oxford look set for a positive result here.

The U’s have also lost just one of their last five games on the road against third tier opposition so they stand a decent chance of getting a result here on Wednesday night.
