Preview: Hereford vs Oxford
Hereford United will go in search of a second win of the season when they entertain Oxford United on Saturday.
The Bulls will also be looking for their first goal in over 500 minutes of football, with manager Simon Davey hoping that his team perform like they did in the second half against Rotherham United in their last home game, rather than at Burton Albion last weekend.
United's only injury concern at present is over the fitness of goalkeeper Dan Connor, who is likely to be missing for a couple of weeks after sustaining a freak hip injury.
With a full compliment of players, Simon Davey could choose one of three systems that he's employed so far this season.
United have favoured 4-3-3 but employed both a 3-5-2 and 4-4-2 setup at Burton Albion, with all three formations a possibility for the visit of Oxford.
