Exeter City host Luton Town at St James Park on Tuesday (September 26) in the third round of the EFL Cup.
The hosts lost 2-0 to Oxford United in League One at the weekend. Exeter conceded inside 10 minutes before captain Will Aimson conceded two penalties in the final 10 minutes to cap off a miserable display.
Luton, meanwhile, have had a difficult Premier League campaign. However, they picked up their first point of the campaign on Saturday in a 1-1 draw with Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The Hatters started on the front foot and strengthened their grip on proceedings after Wolves were reduced to 10 men in the first half. However, they failed to convert their numerical advantage to all three points.
