Luton vs Manchester United Match Preview and Team News
Luton
The Town has knocked out a couple of decent opponents in Norwich and Reading to get this far and made it two wins from two league games by edging Derby 2:1 on Saturday. They are in great shape and ready for a very tough challenge. Clark has scored in back-to-back fixtures, while James Collins netted four times in the opening two victories, and this is a fully-fit, in-form outfit playing with confidence. Luke Berry, the leading player in the middle of the field in the last round, scored a goal, he is excellent in the passing game, and he does not allow his opponents much action. James Collins is the best player of the team last season with 14 goals scored, and he is experienced and means a lot to the team, all praise for him. No injured players, and all of them should be in the protocol for this match.
Manchester United
In contrast, United started their campaign horribly when they fell 3-1 at Cristal Palace at Old Trafford over the weekend. It was a poorly played game by the Red Devils, the guests deservedly celebrated. United started their Premier League season a week late following their Europa League involvement and seemed severely undercooked. A debut goal from Donny van de Beek was about the only bright spot in a labored display from the Red Devils. Great debut for him and the Dutch international should be a severe reinforcement for the team from Old Trafford. Bruno Fernandes is the best player of the club, and the Portuguese international scored five goals in the Europa League and eight goals in the Premier League last season. It is a pleasure to watch this guy as he uses every opportunity and creates enormous problems for the opponent. Nemanja Matic was not part of the United team due to their initial defeat by Palace due to fitness concerns. The Serbian midfielder had only four training sessions before Saturday’s match, and he will not be in the squad for this match.
