Luton Host Third Placed Wycombe In League Two

Tomorrow`s only League Two clash is a key one for both Luton and Wycombe, both sides looking to make some sort of headway as they look to achieve their season`s aims. Sixth placed Luton are aiming to sustain their position in the League Two play-offs, only one point saving them from falling out of the top seven all together. Whilst a victory over Wanderers at home would see them remain but with a more favourable points tally, a defeat could see them fall from the play-off zone should they also lose at the weekend.

Wycombe are currently in third position in the league, one point to the good of fourth placed Bury with a game in hand. A victory away at Luton would not see the Buckinghamshire club move further up the table though they would sit level on points with second placed Shrewsbury who have a substantially superior goal difference. A defeat would see Wycombe remain just a point better off than Bury.

The two sides have met just once this season, this being in the reverse fixture at Wycombe`s Adams Park back on Boxing Day. Two early goals meant that the game finished tied at 1-1. The first of these goals was scored by the home side, Paris Cowan-Hall hitting the back of the net in the third minute. This short lived lead was ended by Jonathan Smith five minutes later, the visitors remaining on level terms for the remainder of the match.

Betvictor have the best price on this game ending 1-1 once again tomorrow night, this being 6/1. Otherwise, Smith is a 20/1 (bet365, Betvictor, Sportswinner) shout to grab the last goal of the encounter. Cowan-Hall will not be available for Gareth Ainsworth`s club following his sale to Millwall during the January transfer window. Nineteen-to-five (Betvictor) says that the match will be tied both at half-time and at full-time.

Indeed, despite being unable to snatch all three points from their last encounter with Luton, it is Ainsworth`s visitors who are the favourites to do the business against the Hatters tomorrow. Skybet have the best price of 9/5 on a Wanderers away win. John Still`s side, conversely, are on offer at 15/8 with both Betvictor and boylesports whilst a draw can be backed at 12/5. This price is available at all of betfred, Betvictor and Totesport.

The home side have failed to pick up even a single point in March, losing all four of their matches. Their recent home record in League Two is much better, however, having only lost once in their last five. Luton have picked up 10 points in their last five home games, scoring as many goals. With an average of two goals per home match in this period, Still`s men can be backed at 12/5 at Coral to hit the back of the net over 1.5 times.

Having scored three goals, Mark Cullen is the club`s highest scorer for this period. He is available at 6/1 at most bookmakers to be the last goalscorer tomorrow after hitting the last goal against both Carlisle (1-0) and York (2-2).

Wycombe are currently unbeaten in March, their last defeat coming seven games ago when losing 2-1 to Newport. Ainsworth`s third placed side are also unbeaten in their last 11 league games on the road. They have, however, conceded five goals in their last three games and the price is 11/10 (Numerous) on both teams scoring tomorrow evening.

Fred Onyedinma has scored two of the club`s eight goals in their last five away fixtures. He is available at 5/2 (ladbrokes) to score at any time.
