The Hatters festive programme starts with the visit of Newcastle United, to Kenilworth Road, today.
While both sides have been hit with injuries and will be missing key players, it is our visitors who have been the hardest hit.
In midweek, Newcastle were unable to call on a huge TEN players for their Carabao Cup clash against Chelsea, a tie they eventually lost on penalties.
The defeat coming hard-on-the-heels of a Champions League exit at the group stages.
For Luton Town, this fixture wll be their first without the services of Tom Lockyer after the Welsh international defender suffered a cardiac arrest, at the Vitality Stadium, against Bournemouth.
With the kick-off fast approaching we are now able to bring you the confirmed team sheets.

Bell captain really !!!! Only if Barkley doesn’t want the responsibility an concentrate on his own game. Would I not make him captain.
Ok great to win but lets not get carried away.we cannot afford to yet again miss chances to put games to bed. Unless we score more goals we will continue to struggle.
Can’t believe Rob Edwards ignored your post about Barkley, and what a great win to give everybody a lift in a difficult period for everybody at LTFC. Respect to Newcastle fans for their banner and clapping for Locks in the 4th minute. Great day, came away buzzing 👍
