Betting tips for Oxford vs Arsenal: FA Cup preview and odds

Oxford United welcome Arsenal to the Kassam Stadium in the third round of the FA Cup on Monday (kick-off, 8pm). It's the first time the two sides have met for 20 years. Karl Robinson's side are 15th in League One and have won just one of their previous six third-tier matches. Arsenal are in form and sit at the top of Premier League.

Oxford United take on Arsenal in the FA Cup fourth round.

Mikel Arteta is likely to rest his key players for the trip to Oxford. Oxford started the season with play-off aspirations but are 11 points outside the top six. They have won just once in their previous six matches in League One. Arsenal are looking to set up a fourth-round tie at Manchester City.

Fabio Vieira has been on the bench for most of the season. He is a creative midfielder who can hurt the opposition with his direct running and ability to score from outside the box. Oxford are likely to sit deep and Vieiras has scored twice this season, one of them from long range.

Arsenal are expected to dominate possession tonight. Rob Holding is expected a start in this tie. He has scored once this season in the Europa League.
