On Tuesday night, Championship duo Wigan Athletic and Luton Town go head-to-head in an FA Cup third-round replay. The first match between the pair produced a 1-1 draw.

Wigan Athletic

This game may provide some light relief for the Latics and their fans, as the team from Lancashire currently sit rock bottom of the Championship table. However, all hope of survival this season is not lost yet, as the Latics are still only four points adrift of safety.

A 1-1 draw with Cardiff City last time out means that Wigan has now failed to win in their previous seven games in all competitions.

Kolo Toure’s team has also won just one of their last 15 competitive matches.

Despite their recent poor form, they have lost just one of their previous six matches in the FA Cup. Athletic have won just once in their last four games on their travels in the competition.

Luton Town

The Hatters are mounting a realistic challenge for the Championship play-offs this season and find themselves just two points adrift of the top-six in the second-tier table. A 3-2 home defeat against West Brom ended a four-game unbeaten run in all competitions for the Hatters.

Luton have an inconsistent recent record in the FA Cup, having recorded just three wins in their last nine matches in the competition.

Their recent games in the competition have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five matches in the Fa Cup.

Town has also won just one of their last four away games in the FA Cup. Their recent FA Cup games on their travels have been relatively high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in seven of their nine away games in the competition.
