Nottingham Forest record seventh straight win with FA Cup victory against Luton Nottingham Forest made it seven wins in a row in all competitions for the first time in 19 years after beating managerless Luton 2-0 in the FA Cup.
There were moments of danger as Luton, adjusting to life after Edwards, showed threat with Forest goalkeeper Carlos Miguel palming Liam Walsh’s long-distance strike over the crossbar before denying Isaiah Jones a wonder goal after he danced into the area.
They easily put themselves in the hat for Sunday’s fourth-round draw and they can now turn their attention to Tuesday’s crunch Premier League clash with Liverpool, which could determine whether Forest really are in a title race.
Forest added to their six successive Premier League victories with a comfortable success over the Sky Bet Championship side thanks to goals from Ryan Yates and Ramon Sosa.
With Tuesday’s game in mind, Nuno Espirito Santo made 11 changes but despite the disruption, Forest were quick to find their groove and knocked on the door for an early opener.
