Our prediction for this match: Oxford City 1 - 3 Leicester
Oxford City vs Leicester Preview
Oxford City will try to claim a major scalp in the FA Cup first round when they take on Leicester City on Friday evening. The Hoops have enjoyed a decent run of results lately, winning six of their last ten matches in all competitions, but their defensive display in a 3-1 National League defeat to South Shields was far from convincing. Tyrone Marsh and Scott Pollock will be the main attacking threats for the hosts, who have scored an impressive 2.75 goals per game across their last four home outings.
Leicester, meanwhile, are determined to secure promotion to the Championship but also have ambitions of making a deep FA Cup run. The Foxes were held to a 2-2 draw by Stevenage in their last League One fixture and will be eager to return to winning ways. Russell Martin's men have been impressive in front of goal, averaging 2.20 goals per game in their last five away matches. Ben Nelson and Jakub Stolarczyk remain sidelined through injuries, while Conor Chaplin is expected to return to the starting XI.
Despite Oxford City's promising home record, Leicester's superior individual quality should prove decisive. Therefore, our main betting tip leans toward Away Win, alongside Leicester Over 1.5 goals and Over 2.5 goals total (given Leicester's recent attacking numbers).
This FA Cup match will be played on Friday, 6 November 2026 at 19:45 in Court Place Farm, Oxford, England.
