Match Preview: Luton Town v Middlesbrough

Middlesbrough travel to Kenilworth Road to take on Luton Town in the Sky Bet Championship ahead of the Tuesday night clash.

Boro will be looking to bounce back after a 0-2 home defeat to Birmingham City on Saturday, which put an end to the North-East side’s good recent form.

Luton also suffered their first defeat in their last six league games in a 2-0 away loss to Preston North End.

Both sides find themselves mid-table in the Championship with Luton sitting 10th and Middlesbrough sitting 11th in the league, both on 21 points from 15 games.

If results go their way, either side could find themselves in the Play-off spots by the end of the night.

Middlesbrough haven’t had the best of times at Kenilworth Road in recent times, failing to beat Luton Town in their last 4 away encounters.

Players to watch:

Andraz Sporar- The Boro forward has scored two league goals in the last three games and has scored twice in away games this season already.

Elijah Adebayo- The English forward has seven goals in 12 league starts for Luton this season, averaging a goal every 147 minutes in the Championship.

Both sides will be looking to get back on track with a win and make a push for the Play-Off places towards the end of the season.
