Luton vs Arsenal team news

Luton could be without Tom Lockyer after the club captain was forced off against Brentford. Teden Mengi is another doubt from the game,

Loanee Albert Sambi Lokonga will not be able to face his parent club, but would be unlikely to feature anyway due to fitness issues.

Takehiro Tomiyasu is a doubt after being withdrawn against Wolves, and may not be risked just three days later. Ben White will come back in to deputise.

Otherwise, it is as you were for Mikel Arteta with Thomas Partey, Fabio Vieira, Emile Smith Rowe and Jurrien Timber sidelined.

Luton vs Arsenal prediction

Luton have started picking up points after a tough start, but Arsenal will surely have too much for them on Tuesday night especially given the Hatters' latest injuries.

Mikel Arteta will be tempted to rotate with Aston Villa to come at the weekend as the fixtures continue to come thick and fast, but the squad will have plenty in the tank to rack up another win.

Arsenal to win, 2-0.
