Luton Town, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Luton Town players having failed to take any points away from their recent 4-3 away defeat at the hands of Bournemouth. In that game they had 41% possession and managed 8 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to Bournemouth who had 24 attempts and 10 on target.
They have bagged 9 goals in their last 6 matches but haven't taken the points they might have hoped for, primarily due to some indecisive defending that has seen their goal breached 17 times in that period. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games; however, they have scored in 13 of their 14 played at Kenilworth Road Stadium this season.
A recent poor run of home form for The Hatters in the league has seen them lose 3 games in a row at Kenilworth Road Stadium.
When it comes to home matches at Kenilworth Road Stadium, Elijah Adebayo will be feeling confident about finding the net again, with 6 league goals for Luton Town in their last 6 home games.
Nottingham Forest, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 1-0 away defeat by Brighton & Hove Albion will have left the Nottingham Forest squad feeling a little deflated. Their share of possession in that meeting was 36%, while racking up 9 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. Brighton & Hove Albion had 10 shots on goal with 3 on target.
Manager Nuno Espírito Santo will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 7 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 10 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 24 of their 28 games overall.
Results have been poor for Forest recently, with 4 losses and only 1 win from their last 6 league games their current form is not going to help them move up the table.
Having scored 5 goals in his last 6 league games for Nottingham Forest, Chris Wood will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 2-2 draw.
The Reds defence has struggled at Kenilworth Road Stadium, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 7 visits.
Forest has had a poor run of results against Luton having not won any of their last 5 meetings.
Luton manager Rob Edwards has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Elijah Adebayo (Thigh), Mads Andersen (Calf), Amari'i Bell (Hamstring), Jacob Brown (Knee), Joe Johnson (Illness), Tom Lockyer (Heart problems), Marvelous Nakamba (Knee), Gabe Osho (Knee), Dan Potts (Unknown) and Albert Sambi Lokonga (Hamstring) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Nuno Espírito Santo has a number of injury concerns in his Forest squad to contend with: Ola Aina (Knock), Giovanni Reyna (Knock) and Nuno Tavares (Knock)
