Morecambe have a tough task on their hands this weekend when they travel to promotion chasing Oxford United for their League 2 clash.

The U`s are on a charge with Chris Wilder`s men currently occupying a play off position. With 65 points their would be few betting against them going all the way this year and finally make a return to third tier football.

Morecambe sitting in mid table and safe from relegation will be just looking to finish the season as high as possible. The Shrimps slipped to a 1-0 defeat to Shrewsbury last time out but were unlucky and played well enough to earn a draw.
