| PROBABLE LINEUPS |

LUTON TOWN
Tyler Henry, Kovacs, Richards, Taylor Lawless, Mendy, Spiller, Howells Shaw, Gray |
MILLWALL
Forde Smith, Shittu, Beevers, Lowry Henry, Trotter, Abdou, Woolford Hulse, Keogh |
Paul Buckle may name a starting XI close to the one that stunned Premier League side Norwich in the last round, with only defender Lathaniel Rowe-Turner missing due to suspension.
The Hatters' goalscorer at Carrow Road, Scott Rendell, may have to make do with a place on the substitutes bench again.
As for Millwall, the game comes too soon for winger Chris Taylor and striker Nathan Tyson, although both should re-join training next week.
Elsewhere, Andy Keogh could come back into the side in place of on-loan Arsenal forward Benik Afobe.
| DID YOU KNOW? |
Luton is attempting to become the first non-league side to reach the sixth round of the FA Cup since QPR in 1914.
- Luton's best performance in the FA Cup came in 1959, when The Hatters were runners-up to Nottingham Forest.
- This is the furthest Luton has been in the FA Cup since 1994, when it was eventually knocked out in the semifinals by Chelsea.
- By beating Norwich in Carrow Road in the last round (pictured right), Luton became the first non-league side to win away at a Premier League club since Altrincham defeated Birmingham in 1986.
- Millwall has reached the fifth round of the FA Cup for only the second time since losing in the 2004 final to Manchester United.
- Millwall has won more games in the FA Cup (two) in 2013 than it has in the League Championship (one).
- Millwall's Ireland international David Forde had a brief loan spell at Luton in 2007.
- The last time these two sides met came in the 2007-08 season, when a 0-0 draw was played out at the New Den in League One.
