Luton vs Newport County Predictions

• Championship side Luton play two divisions higher than League Two Newport
• Newport have been knocked-out of the EFL Cup by opponents from a higher division in each of the last nine seasons
• Both teams have scored in each of the last five meetings between these two sides

Luton buoyed by Saturday’s point at Burnley  

Luton will be buoyed by Saturday’s point at promotion hopeful’s Burnley and with a much deeper squad at his disposal these day’s Nathan Jones’ side are expected to brush past League Two Newport on Tuesday. Cauley Woodrow is yet to start a league match for his new club and with a point to prove, he could cause the Welsh side a host of problem’s should Nathan Jones afford him a starting berth.

Newport likely to come up short once again

Newport have regularly come up short in this competition against opposition from a higher division – Newport have been knocked-out of the EFL Cup by opponents from higher divisions in each of the last nine seasons. Over 2.5 match goals were scored in seven of Newport’s last nine EFL Cup exits and they look to be severely up against it on Tuesday. Both teams have scored in the last five meetings between these two teams and James Rowberry’s side may be able to grab a consolation in what should be a high-scoring cup tie.

Luton Town to Win and Over 2.5 Match Goals will be the main selection for Tuesday’s game, with a 3-1 home win forming the Correct Score prediction.
