Luton Town hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 21 points and a 24th position in the Championship table. Visiting Derby County holds 16th place with 37 pts.
The visiting Derby County played their last game only four days ago, a FA Cup match. That game was also an away game, at Northampton Town. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
Luton Town form and stats
4-3-6 (win-draw-lost) are the Championship numbers at home for Luton Town, who have the most conceded goals (61) in Championship, so far this season. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Luton Town with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Fulham game, 33 days ago, have they avoided a loss.
In their previous game, the manager G. Jones led his Luton Town to a defeat in the Championship match away at Nottingham Forest. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Kenilworth Road Stadium. Preceding that match was the home game against Birmingham City that was lost 1-2.
Luton Town are traveling soon after this match as the Championship match at West Bromwich Albion awaits in four days.
Luton Town have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Kenilworth Road Stadium with 20 goals in 13 league matches. Luton Town have conceded 22 from these games.
Derby County form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Derby County so far with only 8 points returning home. The records show 1-5-7 (win-draw-lose). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Derby County have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone twelve consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Huddersfield Town game.
Derby County has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Northampton Town for a FA Cup game that ended a draw (0-0). Prior to that match, a home win 1-0 against Hull City in the Championship.
A quick return to home after this game, as Derby County are hosting Stoke City in the Championship only three days away.
The visitors have scored 10 goals from 13 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Derby County have conceded 25 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
