Morecambe to Win
Our first Morecambe vs Oxford prediction backs the Shrimps to record a much-needed win. Morecambe rely heavily on their home matches for points and 6 of their 7 league wins so far had come on home turf. The Shrimps desperately need the points too. At the same time, Oxford are in free fall after 5 consecutive defeats.
Half With Most Goals – First
Our next free betting tip is for the first half to have more goals. With all of Morecambe’s last 3 games seeing the majority of the goals scored in the first half and all of Oxford’s last 4 games too, we think this a bet worth considering.
Over 0.5 Morecambe Goals
If we believe Morecambe can win we obviously think they will score at least 1 goal too. This is our final Morecambe vs Oxford prediction. With Oxford unable to keep a clean sheet in the last 16 rounds, and also unable to keep a clean sheet in the last 4 H2H clashes we think this is the safest of our betting tips.
Morecambe vs Oxford Lineups and Team News
Morecambe
Morecambe were poor on Tuesday when Charlton beat them 4-1. The Shrimps had serious problems defending set pieces yet again. With just 1 win in the last 10 rounds, Morecambe are in a desperate position and for them, every remaining match has the feel of a cup final.
Latest news
The Morecambe boss Derek Adams is without 3 injured players for this game. However, from those, the only important squad member is the centre-back Bedeau. Changes to the lineup can be expected after the poor midweek showing. Both Delaney and Stockton could start again after being benched on Tuesday.
Oxford
Oxford lost 2-3 at home vs Derby last weekend in what was their fifth consecutive league defeat and eleventh game without a win. This was the last match without a manager. From this week Liam Manning is in charge and the players might be pumped up to try and impress him.
Latest news
The new gaffer is missing 7 players for his first match at the helm. However, from them, the useful box-to-box midfielder Bodin is the only important squad member. Manning is yet to disclose if he will shake things up with the lineup and the formation, or if he will try to keep things as they had been for now.
