Opposition

  • Banbury United sit 9th in the league table, with 42 points from 27 games.
  • At home, they’ve played 13 games, with a record of W7 D3 L3.
  • In 13 home games, they have only conceded 13 goals.
  • Recent outings at home have seen Banbury lose 2-0 to Peterborough Sports, which came after 4-2 and 5-0 wins versus Redditch United & Stratford Town respectively.
  • Banbury are winless in their last three league games. Either side of the Peterborough Sports defeat, they drew 2-2 at Nuneaton Borough and, most recently, lost 1-0 at Royston Town.
  • They have not scored in their last two league games but before that, midfielder Ravi Shamsi had scored in four consecutive matches.
  • Jaanai Gordon is Banbury’s highest league scorer this season, with 12 goals, but he now plies his trade at Oxford City, one tier higher than this.

Your support, as always, would be hugely appreciated – especially as we look to remain top of the league! This will be another tough game, against a very good team, so your support would be massively appreciated! We hope to see as many Rouslers there as possible!
