Luton unbeaten in last ten

Third placed Luton Town will be looking to close the gap on Fleetwood Town who occupy second spot, when they entertain Mansfield Town at Kenilworth Road in Wednesday night’s solitary Blue Square Premier fixture. Luton have put together a solid ten match unbeaten run which has included two 5-0 victories over cash-strapped Kettering Town who now seem doomed for relegation. Whilst these two results alone have boosted their goal difference, they’ve also effectively dealt with the lower half teams such as Stockport County, Newport County and Tamworth, along with gaining points at Southport and Cambridge United. The Hatters’ home record stands at 9-2-3 32/10, with only Grimsby Town (41) and York City (35) scoring more goals at home than them and only Cambridge United (9 goals) conceding fewer. Unsurprisingly then, Luton possess plenty of attacking depth with leading scorers forwards Danny Crow (9 goals, 1 assist) and Amari Morgan-Smith (9 goals, 4 assists) along with Jake Howells (5 goals, 5 assists), Aaron O’Connor (5 goals, 3 assists) and midfielder Stuart Fleetwood (5 goals, 5 assists). In addition, John Kissock has contributed with 3 assists. The Hatters are also through to the last 16 of the FA Trophy after beating Hinckley Town 3-0 on Monday night.

Mansfield draw too many

Visitors Mansfield Town are currently on a four match unbeaten run which includes two draws (home and away at York City during the festive period) and home wins over Forest Green Rovers 1-0 and 3-2 over second from bottom Hayes & Yeading. The Stags’ away record stands at 4-7-2 16/15, and as the stats suggest, have drawn too many matches for them to be making a serious promotion challenge so far. They’ve actually lost just once in their last twelve away from home, with seven of those matches ending in a draw. However, they’ve actually beaten just one of the top six on the road (Wrexham back in September) and drawn with one (York City last away match). Their two losses were at 6th placed Gateshead and 8th placed Southport. Undoubtedly, their main threat is forward Matthew Green (15 goals, 5 assists) and he’s supported by midfielders Ross Dyer (5 goals, 2 assists), Louis Briscoe (4 goals, 4 assists) and forward Lindon Meikle (5 goals, 1 assist).

Hatters ready for Stag-do

I’ll stick my neck out here as I think Luton will win this match, and will back them with the -1 asian handicap given the amount of firepower at their disposal. Luton Town to win 2-1 or 3-1 which will end in stake returned or a good win.
