Oxford United have failed to win any of their past nine league games as they prepare to face Watford on Saturday (15:00 GMT).
Watford have won three of their past five Championship matches, leaving them four points short of the play-off places.
Oxford have won just two of the past 27 games between the two sides in all competitions (D12 L13) and are winless in their last seven against the Hornets (D2 L5).
Watford are unbeaten in their past 15 away games in all competitions against Oxford (W5 D10) - this is their first visit to the U's since a 1-1 League Cup draw in September 2020.
