That's it from a freezing Chesterfield. #oufc gutted to leave without anything to show for their efforts, but now 10 defeats in 18 L2 games.

Wilder also critical of the referee on both Chesterfield goals - played too much stoppage time in 1st half and 2nd half didn't allow...

Wilder: "We come away from a game where we've had big periods (of control) but find ourselves pointless."

— @OxfordMailOUFC 17 November 2012
3:06pm
#chesterfieldfc 0 #oufc 1 Really bright start. Constable gets in a decent position and crosses for Potter, but Chesterfield clear.

Out come #oufc and #chesterfieldfc. Decent atmosphere at the Proact, let's hope the game lives up to it.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 17 November 2012
2:50pm
Sam Togwell will be one of two defensive midfielders for #chesterfieldfc . He played 5 games on loan for #oufc in 2004.

The #oufc end. We're expecting 4-500 in there by kick-off. http://t.co/nDTolwJ2

Good to see JFC back in the side, he'll enjoy playing on what looks a very decent pitch here. #oufc

2:40pm
RT @yelbarhdadi: @OxfordMailOUFC Think we'll set up as a 4-4-1-1 with Heslop and JFC out wide and Potter behind Beano.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 17 November 2012
2:40pm
@OxfordMailOUFC it's 4-2-3-1 for us aswell
— @AshleyHall07 17 November 2012
2:40pm
What do we think about #oufc's line-up? Trying to work out if Potter will be in behind Constable, or part of a 5-man midfield.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 17 November 2012
2:32pm
#chesterfieldfc will be 4-2-3-1, four changes for them. Plenty of firepower on the bench: Jack Lester, Marc Richards & Luis Boa Morte. #oufc

#chesterfieldfc beat Hartlepool (L1) 6-1 in the FA Cup here, but have lost last 3 home league games to Barnet, Fleetwood & D&R'bridge. #oufc

Ryan Clarke and Wayne Brown out for their warm-ups. Welcomed by a smattering of applause from the early birds in the #oufc end.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 17 November 2012

#oufc looking for a third away win on the bounce after wins against Wycombe and Barnet.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 17 November 2012
2:05pm
Who would've thought back in the summer that #oufc and #chesterfieldfc would be 18th & 17th by mid-November? Inconsistency has plagued both.
— @OxfordMailOUFC 17 November 2012
2:03pm
Team news expected soon. #oufc's main issue is Potter's fitness. The winger's missed the last 2 games with a hamstring issue, but may return
— @OxfordMailOUFC 17 November 2012
2:01pm
@OxfordMailOUFC positive and without having a drink lol fancy us 3-1 today COYY!!
— @kevbrooks2 17 November 2012

Leven might not be a bad bet for scoring. The #oufc midfielder captained #chesterfieldfc 5 seasons ago, this is his 1st return to an ex-club
— @OxfordMailOUFC 17 November 2012

@OxfordMailOUFC Chesterfield 0-1 Oxford, Leven Penalty to win it.

As always your score predictions are most welcome. Anyone who gets it right deserves respect, #oufc and #chesterfieldfc are unpredictable.

Good afternoon and welcome to an overcast but mild Proact Stadium.
Oxford United were superb on their only other visit here almost exactly two years ago, winning 2-1. Can we see a similar outcome today?
Team news is expected shortly, but as always your comments are welcome throughout the afternoon, so post any thoughts below.
