Crystal Palace
Oxford United and Crystal Palace square off against each other at Kassam Stadium in what is expected to be an exciting EFL Cup game. Following back-to-back defeats to Bristol Rovers and Lincoln, Oxford United shared the spoils with Morecambe in their last league match. The Yellows are eager to return to winning ways, but they are seen as underdogs in Tuesday’s clash. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of the visit of Palace.
The Eagles, on the other hand, aim to build on a 3-1 win over Aston Villa. Crystal Palace have big ambitions for the 2022/2023 EFL Cup campaign, and given their display in the last Premier League game, away win should definitely be considered. All McArthur, Butland, Tomkins, and Ferguson are out of contention with injuries, while both Mateta, Olise, and Milivojevic should start against Oxford.

James Henry was born in Reading on 10 June, 1989, but he grew up in Woodley. He began playing football at his home-town club Woodley Saints, but he made progress during his spell at Reading’s youth academy.
