S.P.Read Esq: Luton v Stoke
Our daily columnist and pundit S.P. Read Esq. looks ahead to the 7.45pm kick off in the Capital One Cup on Tuesday between LUTON v STOKE and finds the best opportunities available on Star Spreads, the home of sports spread betting.
Small loss on the Arsenal v Liverpool match last night. I needed 51 and it ended up at 50 – one up for the Star Spreads market makers.
Capital One Cup action tonight on Sky with the cameras at Kenilworth Road for the visit of Stoke.
The two teams haven’t met since they were both in the Championship in the 2006/7 season when both games that year ended in a draw.
Luton are without a league win so far this season but have already pulled off a giant-killing act in the first round to beat Bristol City but face a huge uphill task against their Premier League rivals who so far this season have taken two points from their first three games and have a home match against WBA to prepare for on Saturday.
Midfielder Olly Lee could make his debut for the Hatters following a trial.
Stoke are likely to rest their record signing Xherdan Shaqiri after he played a full 90 minutes against Norwich on Saturday.

Stoke can usually be relied on for a goal or two (they have only failed to score in one of their last 10 away League Cup games) and I’m selling the time of their first match goal at 43 minutes with Star Spreads.
