BBC: Oxford United moved within a point of Championship safety and extended their unbeaten run at the Kassam Stadium to five matches with victory over out-of-form Watford.

Sky: Watford, who have a poor away record this campaign, were on a winless streak of three going into the game but they had beaten the U’s 2-1 at Vicarage Road at the start of October.

Fran’s Watford Blog: It had been a very poor performance with only Irankunda coming away with much credit. He created some decent chances and, if one had gone in, it would have been a different afternoon. Maamma was also bright when he came on and showed how much we have missed him. But apart from them, it was a miserable afternoon of football.

Fran’s Watford Blog: It was good to finish pre-season with a win and a clean sheet. Grieves took his goal really well and seems to have impressed Pezzolano. I hope we will see a lot of him this season. Kyprianou had a decent run out. I think he will be a good addition. The injury to Pollock was concerning, I hope he is fit for Saturday. For me, the man of the match was Sissoko, who seems to have a new lease of life. We may well see more of him this season than any of us were expecting.
