Grays Athletic go into tomorrow’s home clash with former Football League side Luton Town knowing that they are likely to be facing one of their toughest challenges of the season.

For the Hatters come into the match fresh from a superb 2-0 FA Cup first round proper replay win at League Two Rochdale on Wednesday night.

Veteran striker Kevin Gallen scored both goals.

The two teams had drawn 3-3 at Kenilworth Road last weekend.

Grays know all about the power of Luton as they lost 3-0 away to them in an earlier FA Cup round.

In the league Luton are filling fifth spot - the final play-off place - and will be anxious to maintain their promotion push before embarking on their next challenge in the FA Cup - away to another League Two side, Rotherham United, in a fortnight.

Grays have announced increased prices for tomorrow’s game due to the fact that, an anticipated larged crowd than normal, means they’ve had to have more police and stewartds on duty.

But if you can produce a match ticket for either of the last two home games you’ll get a £2 reduction.
