Hi °C | Lo °C Luton's FA Cup hero Scott Rendell hopes his team can overcome Millwall so he will stand a chance of lining up against his boyhood idol Ryan Giggs in the quarter-finals.
Rendell fired Luton to the biggest shock of the fourth round last month when he scored the winner for the conference side against Premier League outfit Norwich at Carrow Road.
Victory for Luton today will make them the first non-league team to reach the quarter-final in 99 years.
Rendell could not help but let his mind wander when asked about the prospect of a potential quarter-final meeting with Manchester United.
"I am a United fan so I'd love to play them in the next round," Rendell said.
"If we do get past Millwall then I will be sitting on the edge of my seat to see if we draw United. My favourite memory of the FA Cup growing up was watching that Ryan Giggs semi-final goal against Arsenal. It was just a fantastic moment and it just gave me hope as a kid to emulate him and do something similar.
"The boys have nothing to fear against Millwall. There is definitely a feeling in the squad that we can pull off another shock."
Police have warned fans without tickets not to travel to the game.
The authorities are keen to avoid a re-run of the rioting which erupted following the last meetings between the two clubs in 1985 when 47 people were injured, 33 of them policemen.
