Luton had to fight back from two goals down to earn a draw against Millwall on Tuesday, courtesy of a 58th-minute effort from Elijah Adebayo and Luke Berry’s equaliser three minutes from time. Prior to that, Rob Edwards’ side edged past Birmingham City last Saturday, thanks to Charlton Morris’ lone goal two minutes into the second half. It was Luton’s 14th second tier victory of the season. As of now, the Hatters are just five points clear of ninth placed Sunderland, therefore Lutton can’t afford too many slipups in the coming weeks, which might push them out of the playoff spot.
Swansea, on the other hand, are way behind the battle for promotion and are playing for pride. The Swans have recorded just two wins from their last nine league-games in 2023. Their latest triumph came against Blackpool (2-1), mid-way through February, courtesy of Matthew Sorinola’s 21st-minute effort and an own goal by Callum Connolly seventeen minutes from time. After that, Russel Martin’s side suffered back-to-back defeats against Blackburn Rovers and Stoke City, before sharing the spoils against Rotherham on Monday. Although Joel Piroe put the Swans ahead three minutes before the break, The Millers leveled the score through Chiedozie Ogbene’s 52nd-minute effort.
Luton boss Edwards is unlikely to make too many changes to the side that started against Millwall last time out. Adebayo might continue to partner Morris up front, with Drameh and Doughty occupying the flanks. Meanwhile, defenders Reece Burke and Dan Potts are likely to miss out in defence. As for Swansea, Piroe and Cullen could form the attacking-duo, with Grimes and Fulton running the engine room.
Luton Town probable line-up: Horvath, Osho, Lockyer, Bell, Drameh, Nakamba, Mpanzu, Doughty, Clark, Morris, Adebayo
Swansea City Probable line-up: Fisher, Latibeaudiere, Cabango, Wood, Manning, whittaker, Grimes, Fulton, Sorinola
