Pick of the stats: Oxford United v Luton Town
- Published
Oxford United welcome strugglers Luton Town on Tuesday evening, looking to extend their unbeaten run under manager Gary Rowett to seven games.
The U's have won four and drawn two since Rowett took over following their 1-0 win over Blackburn Rovers on Saturday, which moved them up to 15th.
Luton are 23rd in the Championship and without a win in five league games (L4 D1), but did earn a goalless draw at home to Preston North End in new boss Matt Bloomfield's first game in charge at the weekend.
Oxford United have failed to win any of their past 16 EFL games against Luton Town (D6 L10), scoring 15 goals in that time and conceding 31.
Luton have won each of their past two away league games against Oxford and will be looking to win three in succession against them in the Football League for the first time.
Oxford are unbeaten in each of their past three midweek league games (W2 D1), while they are unbeaten at home in such games this term (W2 D1).
Luton have lost each of their past 10 away league games; only twice in the EFL have the Hatters endured longer losing runs on the road, losing 12 successive matches in March 1928 and 11 in February 2020.
25% of the goals Luton have conceded in away league matches this season have come in the final 10 minutes of games (7/28).
