Preview
Watford and Luton Town meet at Vicarage Road, in a match for the 3rd round of the Championship. There is no record of official head‑to‑heads between these two teams in the last 3 years. The last time they met, on 09‑04‑2006, the match ended with the final score: Watford (1‑1) Luton Town. Both teams register significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth atention.

Analysis Watford

The home team is currently in the 9th position of the league, with 4 points won. In their debut, they won in a home match against Middlesbrough, by (1‑0). In the second round, they tied in an away match against Sheffield Wednesday, by (0‑0). This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 1 win, 5 draws and 9 losses in away matches; against 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses at their stadium. They come to this match after a away loss against Newport County by (3‑1). Watford has won 6, tied 1 and lost 3 of the last 10 home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches.

Watford come to this clash unmotivated after a 3-1 away defeat to Newport, counting for the English League Cup. The home team usually act in a tactical system in 5-3-2, favoring quick transitions, mainly through the wings. One of the strengths of home team is how they can take advantage of set pieces. In this tactical formation, the two players responsible for targeting the opposing goal are Sinclair and Murray. Coach Vladimir Ivic is expected to have two absences for this round, both due to injury: Daryl Janmaat and Nathaniel Chalobah.

Confirmed Lineup: Ben Foster, Ben Wilmot, Craig Cathcart, Jeremy Ngakia, Christian Kabasele, James Garner, Ken Sema, Nathaniel Chalobah, João Pedro, Ismaila Sarr.
Coach: T. Cleverley, S. Bilić.

Analysis Luton

The away team is currently in the 3rd position of the league, with 6 points won. In their debut they won in an away match against Barnsley, by (0‑1). In the second round, they won in a home match against Derby County, by (2‑1). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 17 goals scored and 16 conceded; against 6 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 22 goals scored and 25 conceded.

Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches.

Luton come to this clash unmotivated after a 0-3 home defeat to Manchester United, counting for the English League Cup. The visiting team usually play in a traditional 4-3-3, favoring a faster playing style. It should be noted that, in this tactical formation, the three most advanced players are LuaLua, Hylton and Clark. Luton have a lot of difficulty in maintaining ball possession, and his players are not the most expert at reading the game and passing ability. Coach Nathan Jones should have all players available for this match.

Confirmed Lineup: Simon Sluga, Martin Cranie, Matthew Pearson, Sonny Bradley, Rhys Norrington Davies, Pelly Ruddock Mpanzu, Luke Berry, Ryan Tunnicliffe, James Collins, Harry Cornick, Elliott Lee.
