Oxford United make three changes to their starting line-up for the eagerly-awaited derby against Swindon Town at the Kassam Stadium.
Anthony Tonkin comes in at left-back to replace Liam Davis, who drops to the bench, while the experienced Mark Wilson starts in central midfield in place of the injured Peter Leven.
Andy Whing drops into the back four in preference to Harry Worley, so his spot in midfield is taken by Asa Hall.
The U’s won the reverse game at the County Ground 2-1 in August and are attempting to complete a first league double over the Robins since the 1972/73 season.
But on their first visit to Oxford for almost a decade Swindon start as favourites after a run of 10 straight wins which has taken Paolo Di Canio’s side four points clear at the top of npower League Two.
Oxford: Clarke, Batt, Duberry, Whing, Tonkin, Johnson, Wilson, Hall, Holmes, Constable, Rendell
Substitutes: Brown, Worley, Davis, Chapman, Pittman
Swindon: Foderingham, Devera, Caddis, Cibocchi, Ferry, Ritchie, McCormack, Rooney, Risser, Benson, Murray
Substitutes: Cox, De Vita, Smith, Connell, Bodin
