Team News, Form and Prediction as Oxford United Travel to Luton

Oxford United will be looking to pick up their first points on the road when they travel to Luton on Tuesday night.

The U’s have lost at Coventry, Blackburn and Bristol City on their travels so far but the performances have all shown plenty of positives.

Team News, Form and Prediction

Luton have had an inconsistent return to the second tier with just two wins from their opening seven league games. The Hatters have also lost four, including a 3-1 defeat at Plymouth last time out. Rob Edwards’ side have also lost two of their three home games this season, but that victory did come in their last fixture at Kenilworth Road against Sheffield Wednesday.

Josh McEachran made a return to the bench as Oxford played out a goalless draw against Burnley at the weekend so he is back in contention for minutes. Przemyslaw Placheta and Matt Phillips are still a doubt for the game.

Luton are without Amari’i Bell, Daiki Hashioka and former U’s midfielder, Shandon Baptiste. Another former Oxford player in Carlton Morris has netted twice this campaign after bagging double figures in the Premier League last season.

Oxford are without a win in the last six Football League meetings between the two sides, with the Hatters winning four. The U’s haven’t won at Kenilworth Road since a League Cup tie in 1998.

Predicted line-up: Jamie Cumming, Greg Leigh, Ciaron Brown, Elliott Moore, Peter Kioso, Will Vaulks, Ruben Rodrigues, Idris El Mizouni, Siriki Dembele, Tyler Goodrham, Mark Harris.


Prediction: Luton Town 1-1 Oxford United
