The Hatters make a swift return to the DW Stadium this afternoon, for a second match at the ground in a matter of days.
Earlier in the week, the Hatters ventured this far north to take on Wigan Athletic in an FA Cup 3rd round replay, a game that was settled in the 8th minute of stoppage time when Elijah Adebayo fired home the winner.
Today the two teams compete in an EFL Championship fixture, Luton will be looking to get back to winning ways after losing, at Kenilworth Road, last time out against West Bromwich Albion.
Wigan Athletic will be looking to get a win to bolster their hopes of retaining their Championship status.
With the kick-off looming large on the horizon, we are now able to bring you the team sheets.

Well it’s certainly a different team today. Let’s see how it goes. Morris still Injured so let’s hope he’s fit next week.
Say no more….coyh….
good to see fred back on the bench.good win today, and a bit of luck with the ref’s decisions. interesting to see how the team will change with more players getting fit again.COYH.
Makes a change to get refs decisions. Swings and roundabouts. Don’t forget we should have had a pen at 2.0 last week but didn’t get it. What goes around etc….Great to see Ady & Harry on the score sheet after all the panic of Morris being our….
“Being out” should have read..
Great result deserved. Great team effort one thing comes to mind for me. Nothing to do with my feelings but a lot has been said about managerial change by many not talking about on here particularly. But I’m beginning to think that managers nowadays have a shelf life with clubs not on results but simply because players become jaded by the same thing day in day out. An two to three yrs is all teams can stand. What do others think on here. Was njs time up an he did us a favour by leaving an allowing Rob the opportunity to boost us with a new freshness?
I found Cornick’s comments on the situation interesting CW.
Something was off but will never know on the outside.
i think the fans at clubs can have a massive influence on managers. when you lose respect from fans ,managers are affected, they are only human after all. i am sure n.j. was aware certain elements of the crowd were not happy with his performance, but getting into the playoffs speaks for itself. getting bored and stale is the same in any job, and your managers get boring and stale, its just life. any managers shelf life is determined by results edwards,has inherited n.j.’s team and will slowly put his own mark on it. lets hope he is very sucessful, a good vibe seems to be in all of our teams. a good foundation is being laid.COYH.
