Wayne Rooney to score first for Manchester United against Portsmouth in the FA Cup on Saturday was our big winner of the weekend and we are looking for some more good fortune in Monday’s clash between Oxford United and Rushden and Diamonds.


Conference football this may be but we believe money is there for the taking in this game.

Second-placed Oxford have genuine promotion hopes this season and go into this game 22 points ahead of the visitors.


A shock by Graham Wesley’s men on the cards? We don’t think so and indeed we believe the home side, who have yet to lose a league game in front of their home fans this season, will win comfortably.


United could be strengthened by the signing of 18-year-old midfielder Gregg Coombes on a month’s loan from Cardiff but it is likely they would take care of business even without him.


Betterbet.com offer 5/4 for Oxford to be winning at half-time and full-time which we reckon is buying money.
