The FA Cup game at Kenilworth Road this coming Sunday sees visitors Bolton facing home side Luton.

Both Luton and Bolton aim to show their respective set of fans they are the better side on Sunday, and we are bound to see an exciting game.

Luton scored 16 while allowing 17 goals against in the past ten matches. They claimed three clean sheets on the way.

Bolton scored 24 goals, conceded 20 and held on for a clean sheet in one of their last ten matches.

This is the first time Luton squares up against Bolton in the FA Cup in the 21st century, thus both face a whole new experience of coming up against an unknown opponent.

Luton vs Bolton Prediction

Luton Form

Luton are looking to bounce back from a recent setback and get back to winning ways. In their last three matches, they first took out Newcastle by 1-0, before beating Sheffield United by 2-3. The winning streak came to an end against Chelsea, who ran out 2-3 winners. Luton only pulled off two wins from a possible six in recent FA Cup matches on home soil. Of the remaining four matches, they drew two and lost two, as they scored ten and conceded seven goals.

Bolton Form

Bolton are in awesome shape going into this next encounter, as they won their last three matches on the bounce. Lincoln City got left behind in a 0-1 win, before Fleetwood got hammered in a 0-2 victory. Burton was the most recent victim in a 1-0 win for Bolton. In their last six FA Cup away matches, Bolton failed to win more than once. In stead, they've drawn two and lost three, scoring eight while also conceding ten times.

Luton are scoring freely these days, Bolton are doing just fine in that department as well, and we expect a match with plenty of goalsthis coming Sunday.
