The teams have faced each other on two recent occasions: on 12 March 2025, Hull City won 2-1, and on 5 November 2024, Oxford United emerged victorious with a 1-0 scoreline.

The home team enters this second round after a 0-0 draw in their opener against Coventry City. Curiously, Hull City has secured more favourable results away than at home; in their last 30 matches, they recorded 6 wins, 5 draws, and 4 losses as visitors, scoring 14 goals and conceding 11.

Hull has only managed to overturn the score in 2 of the 9 matches when conceding the first goal. It’s notable that 8 of their 20 home goals in the last 20 matches came in the last 15 minutes (76’–90′).
