Oxford vs Arsenal live stream: match preview
Arsenal begin the campaign to extend their unmatched record of 14 FA Cup wins, with this potential banana skin 3rd round tie at League One Oxford United on Monday evening. Prepare for an interesting encounter. Here’s how to watch an Oxford vs Arsenal live stream, no matter where you are in the world – including free-to-air coverage in some places.
The Gunners are currently sitting pretty at the top of the Premier League, but saw their five game winning streak in the league ended by Newcastle last Tuesday in their 0-0 stalemate.
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has a strong connection with this tournament, with the Gunners' win over Chelsea in the 2020 final marking his first silverware as boss.
Karl Robinson’s U’s are currently stalling at 14th in League One. Oxford booked their place in the 3rd round with wins over Woking and Exeter, but have struggled in recent weeks in the league, with just one win in their last six outings.
Key to any Oxford giant-killing will likely be midfield playmaker Cameron Brannigan, a former Liverpool youth star, who has been widely scouted by a number of Championship sides.
The game could see the return of from injury of young Arsenal attacker Emile Smith Rowe, who has been out of action since having groin surgery in late September.
Monday’s match marks the first time the clubs have met since Oxford travelled to Highbury in January 2003 for an FA Cup clash at this same stage of the tournament - a match which saw the Gunners win 2-0 thanks to goals from Dutch legend Dennis Bergkamp and an OG from U’s defender Scott McNiven.
