The Red Devils are unbeaten in their last 11 meetings with Luton (W9 D2).

As per Opta, Rashford has been involved in 10 goals in his last seven League Cup appearances (seven goals, three assists).

Watford, who lost to Newport County, have conceded three goals in a League Cup match against fourth tier opponents for the first time since September 1973 against Reading (3-2).
