Mansfield Town face a trip to Oxford United at The Kassam Stadium on Wednesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Stags will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 7 and win only 2 of the 11 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in September 2003, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a League Division Three match.
