Luton Town will be looking to reach the fifth round of the FA Cup for the first time since 1986 when they make the trip on Tuesday to face Grimsby Town.
After the 2-2 draw at Kenilworth Road over a week ago, this fourth round FA Cup replay is beautifully poised. The visitors go into this game full of confidence, having gone without defeat in their last five games in all competitions. Boasting a run of five games without defeat in all competitions, it would be no surprise to see their aspirations fulfilled.
Grimsby Town, on the other hand, go into the game on the back of a 3-0 win that ended their run of two games without defeat in all competitions. Looking at the games Paul Hurst’s men have played in all competitions this season, it is fair to say that their biggest shortcoming has been their defence. To put that into perspective, they have only managed to keep a clean sheet three times in their last seventeen matches in all competitions, meaning they will have to be at their absolute best to progress to the next stage of the competition.
Grimsby Town vs Luton Town Betting Tips: Away win
Given the visitors' recent form and the fact that they have not lost any of their last four meetings with Grimsby Town, we see them as favourites to win.
However, I don't think they can stop Grimsby Town, who have not scored in only one of their last eight games, from scoring at least one goal.

Grimsby Town Team News
Grimsby Town will again have to do without John McAtee, who is on loan from Luton and ineligible to play.
Captain Luke Waterfall has resumed training after his injury lay-off, but this game would be too soon for him, as well as the injured Ryan Taylor, Jordan Cropper and Lewis Richardson.

As for Luton Twon, Carlton Morris is back after a short injury lay-off but Sonny Bradley, James Shea, Luke Freeman and Henri Lansbury are all still struggling with injuries.
In a likely 3-4-1-2 formation, the attacking duo of Carlton Morris and Elijah Adebayo, who have scored a total of nineteen goals for the visitors this season, will start in the final third, while Ethan Horvath will keep his place between the sticks.
