Luton News and Form
League One side Luton have drawn each of their last four games in all competitions now. However, you have to look at their immense strengths because they have not lost any game since way back in the middle of October last year. We aren’t counting the Football League Trophy in that. So even though they are the lower-ranked side in his tie, they were always likely going to be in with a shot of progression.
They have been so strong on home soil because they haven’t lost a single home game all term and that’s been reflected in the match outright odds here. Luton are W11 D2 in thirteen home fixtures this season. They have played one home FA Cup game this season, taking a 2-0 win over Wycombe. The Hatters haven’t shipped a single goal in any of three FA Cup games this season. The Hatters have scored at least two goals in each of their last ten games on home soil.
Key-Facts – Luton v Sheffiled Wednesday
- Luton are unbeaten at home this season
- The Hatters haven’t conceded in three FA Cup games this term
- Wednesday are winless in six trips to Kenilworth Road
Sheffield Wednesday News and Form
The Owls suffered a big loss out on the road at Hull in the Championship over the weekend. It was a 3-0 reverse which means that they haven’t scored in their last two played. Wins overall this season have been hard to come by for the Owls who have only three victories in their last sixteen games in all competitions now. Sheffield Wednesday are on a four-match run without a win, drawing three of those.
Their away form isn’t going to inspire a lot of confidence really as they have lost five of their last eight away from Hillsborough. Their defence has had its problems all season away from home, banking just the three clean sheets in all competitions. With a W1 D2 L5 record in their last eight on the road, they are underdogs. The Owls are winless in their last six visits to Kenilworth Road. This will be their first trip there since a 2007 Championship meeting.
