Grimsby Town vs Luton Town Prediction and Betting Tips | 7th February 2023

Grimsby Town host Luton Town at Blundell Park in the FA Cup fourth-round replay on Tuesday as both sides aim to reach the next stage of the competition.

The sides played out a 2-2 draw in Luton last Saturday in a topsy-turvy clash.

Gavan Holohan put Grimsby in front just minutes before the break while Elijah Adebayo brought the Hatters back into the game a few minutes into the second half from the penalty spot.

Jordan Clark put the hosts in front for the first time in the match in the 66th minute, only for Harry Clifton to make it 2-2 for the Mariners, less than 60 seconds later.

Feeling fine this morning, Hatters? 😆
