A strong performance from goalkeeper Jamie Cumming helped Oxford consolidate their position in the League One play-off places with a goalless draw at Wycombe.
The U's are now three points clear of seventh-placed Stevenage in the table, although they rode their luck at times against a Chairboys side who missed out on a third league win in four matches.
Wycombe had the game's first big chance after 12 minutes when Beryly Lubala's ball over the top put Dale Taylor through, but his shot was repelled by the foot of Cumming.
Just before the half-hour, the U's stopper pushed out Kieran Sadlier's cross before recovering quickly to keep out another effort from Taylor.
The chances kept coming for the Chairboys, and they should have been ahead in first-half stoppage-time when Lubala somehow steered wide from Sadlier's ball across the six-yard box.
Oxford finally improved in the closing stages and came close to snatching a winner when captain Cameron Brannagan had a shot pushed around the post by Wycombe keeper Max Stryjek.
