OXFORD United slipped to 20th in Sky Bet League One after MK Dons won their third game on the bounce.

The U’s, not in action due to their home clash with Cheltenham Town being postponed following three international call-ups for the Robins, began the weekend 19th in the third tier and two points above the relegation zone.

That two-point gap still exists, however Liam Manning’s side have been leapfrogged by his former club MK Dons.

The Buckinghamshire outfit won 1-0 at home to Morecambe, Jonathan Leko scoring the only goal of the game shortly before the hour mark.
