Oxford duo Mark Creighton (toe) and Anthony Tonkin (illness) are available, as is fellow defender Rhys Day (knee) for the first time this season.

The U's have no new injury concerns, so defenders Jake Wright (back) and Damien Batt (ankle) are the only absentees.
Aldershot defender Ben Herd has recovered from a thigh problem and could be included in the side.
Midfielder Manny Panther could also return to the side after recovering from a toe injury.

Aldershot defender Ben Herd told BBC Surrey:
"We can't score - that's the ultimate problem really. We're creating chances but the ball isn't dropping for us.

"We've just got to keep persevering. You'd worry if we weren't creating chances.
"It would be foolish to fear anyone in this league. We need to respect our opponents but at the same time we've got a good enough squad and it's more about what we do than what they do.
"Hopefully we can go there and do well."
