Oxford United fan Simon is predicting a 1-1 draw in the Sky Bet League One clash between the U's and Sunderland at the Kassam Stadium on Saturday.

The U's go into the game on the back of a 3-1 defeat at Morecambe, while Sunderland were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Portsmouth.

Simon, who has been a season ticket holder at the Kassam Stadium for over 10 years, said: "I think it will be a tough game, but I can see us getting a draw."

"Sunderland are a good side, but we have a good record at home against them."

"I think we will need to be at our best to get something from the game, but I am confident that we can do it."

The U's have won their last two home games against Sunderland, including a 2-1 victory in the EFL Trophy last season.

Sunderland, meanwhile, are unbeaten in their last four away games in all competitions.

The Black Cats are currently 12th in the League One table, while the U's are 15th.
