Luton Town 1 - 1 West Bromwich Albion Luton Town fought back to secure a well-earned point, extending West Bromwich Albion's winless streak in the Championship to seven games. Author - Mark Lee Josh Maja opened the scoring for Albion with a clever flick in first-half injury time, marking their only shot on target before the break. Luton equalised on the hour through former Birmingham City player Tahith Chong, who fired in a composed low left-footed strike on the counter-attack. Carlos Corberan's Baggies have now recorded five consecutive draws, while Luton have managed just five points from their last seven games. Luton's brief escape from the relegation zone depends on Cardiff City and Plymouth Argyle failing to win on Saturday. A closer look at what happened Corberan was forced to reshuffle his line-up due to injuries following the 0-0 draw with Cardiff City. Semi Ajayi and Paddy McNair were sidelined, prompting Callum Styles’ second start at left-back and allowing T

Luton Town 3 - 0 Watford  Under-pressure Luton Town manager Rob Edwards guided his team to a spirited and well-deserved win against their fierce rivals, Watford, in a typically heated derby at Kenilworth Road. Author - Wiliam G from GMCR Football Luton, who were sitting 21st in the table and had only managed two wins in their last nine league matches, took the lead in the first half through Jordan Clark. The midfielder reacted quickly to redirect Tom Holmes' shot past goalkeeper Daniel Bachmann. Watford, who had the chance to go level on points at the top of the table with a victory, struggled to cope with Luton’s physical approach and failed to muster a single shot on target before half-time. Within two minutes of the second half, Carlton Morris, in top form, was left unmarked to head home Alfie Doughty’s corner from close range, putting Luton 2-0 up. Watford rarely looked like they could avoid a fourth consecutive away league defeat. Edwards had the final word against the clu

Plymouth Argyle 3 - 1 Luton Town Plymouth Argyle are now on something of a roll after consecutive home victories. Following their recent victory over Sunderland, they've now had the better Luton. With six goals scored, things are starting to come together for Wayne Rooney's side. Rami Al Hajj got them off to a great start with an early goal, and substitute Ibrahim Cissoko made his mark with a brace. Luton had a glimmer of hope when Victor Moses briefly levelled things, but Plymouth proved too strong for a Luton side that looks like it is struggling to adapt to its return to English football's second tier. A closer look at what happened at Home Park Rami Al Hajj, making his first start for the home side, needed eight minutes to open his Argyle account, curling a lovely strike into the top corner after some slick build-up play. Despite creating further chances before half-time, Plymouth couldn’t extend their lead, while Elijah Adebayo missed a great opportunity to bring t

Luton Town 1 - 2 QPR Michael Frey played a pivotal role in QPR's comeback against Luton Town, creating one goal and scoring the decisive winner in a brilliant display of hardworking centre-forward play.  Frey smashed home a perfectly judged volley to secure Rangers' first Championship victory of the season, just minutes after his power and awareness set up Nicolas Madsen to equalise. The equaliser came somewhat against the run of play, much like Luton's opener in the first half, which was handed to them when the unlucky Jimmy Dunne accidentally turned the ball into his own net from close range. EFL: 2024/2025 (eurosuperfootball.blogspot.com) More news and stories from Luton Luton, still without a win and with just one point and two goals from their four league matches, rarely looked like equalising until the final moments of the game. A frantic finish saw Carlton Morris denied by a fine save from keeper Paul Nardi, and Joe Taylor heading over from close range. Despite t

 We are now going to explore Luton Town's 2023/2024 season.  The 2023–24 season was the 138th season in the history of Luton Town and their first-ever season in the Premier League.  It was also the club's first return to the top flight of English football since the 1991–92 season. Despite a decent effort throughout the season, Luton were relegated from the Premier League on the final day of the season following a 4–2 home loss to Fulham. Ultimately, the damage had been done in the weeks leading up to the last match of their league campaign.  A look at some of the key moments from their season In August, they lost to a seemingly disjointed Chelsea side 3-0. Despite losing comfortably, their fans remained defiant. At the end of that match, European Super Football spoke to Frank who was in the away end at Stamford Bridge. He said: "We have seen improvement in the two weeks since the Brighton match. We are also really proud of the players. In the end, it came down to a fe

At the start of the match, both sides struggled to find a way out of midfield, but the South Korean forward eventually netted with the help of a deflection off defender Teden Mengi just 18 seconds after Carlton Morris was unable to convert Luton's best opportunity of the opening 45 minutes, heading straight at Jose Sa. Wolves showed their intent after the break and doubled their advantage in just five minutes when Toti Gomes found space to head in at the far post. Gary O'Neil's sid

Luton Town 1 - 5 Brentford Yoane Wissa netted twice as Brentford sailed past Luton, easing their worries by surging 10 points ahead of the relegation danger. Wissa swiftly connected with Bryan Mbeumo 's pass, beautifully curling in the opening goal from the box's edge just 24 minutes into the match. Before the half-time whistle, the DR Congo striker seized another opportunity, reacting fastest to a loose ball following Luton's failure to clear Mbeumo's low cross. Ethan Pinnock, back in the starting lineup after a hiatus since February, nodded in a Sergio Reguilon corner in the 62nd minute, firmly placing Brentford in control. Premier League news and stories: 2023/2024  Luton appeared disheartened and short on ideas, highlighted when Keane Lewis-Potter found space at the far post to head in Mbeumo's cross two minutes later, followed by Kevin Schade wrapping up the visitor's scoring. Although the hosts posed a minimal threat , they were granted a consolation i

 Luton Town 1 - 2 Manchester United Manchester United edged closer to the Premier League's top five after an impressive display from Rasmus Hojlund inspired Erik ten Hag's team to a 2-1 win against Luton Town. The Danish player scored twice early in the game at Kenilworth Road , giving the Red Devils control as they aimed to strengthen their chances of qualifying for the Champions League towards the end of the season. Despite Carlton Morris giving Luton hope with a close-range header, Manchester United held on for victory, with Hojlund extending his impressive scoring streak to seven goals in his last six Premier League matches.

Luton Town 1 - 3 Sheffield United Sheffield United clinched their first away win of the season in style, triumphing 3-1 over Luton. It was Cameron Archer’s moment of brilliance with a sensational solo goal, coupled with James McAtee’s successful penalty, that saw United take a commanding 2-0 lead into halftime. Despite Luton’s Carlton Morris narrowing the deficit with a penalty of his own, United remained resolute, securing the win with Vinicius Souza’s remarkable strike, marking his debut goal for the club. Chris Wilder ’s astute tactical changes paid dividends, with Archer, Gustavo Hamer, Jack Robinson, and Ben Osborn stepping up admirably in the absence of Ben Brereton Diaz , Andre Brooks, Auston Trusty, and Will Osula, respectively. Pictures from Luton Town as they shock Sheffield United The Blades carved out an early opportunity within just 28 seconds of kick-off. Hamer's deft flick found McAtee, whose shot narrowly missed the mark. However, disappointment struck for Rhys Nor

 Luton Town 2 - 1 Crystal Palace Luton manager Rob Edwards has expressed his desire for his players not to "throw a celebration" following Jacob Brown's late goal against Crystal Palace.  Brown's goal in the 81st minute secured Luton's first home triumph in the Premier League this season.  The game only came to life in the second half, with one of the few noteworthy moments in the initial period being Odsonne Edouard's disallowed goal due to the ball bouncing off Luton defender Tom Lockyer and onto the hand of the Palace striker. This narrow escape injected energy into Luton, and Teden Mengi capitalized on a loose ball in the box, breaking the deadlock with a poke-in after a corner flick-on. This was the first moment on what turned out to be an exciting 10 minutes.  What a way for @TedenMengi to mark his first goal in senior football. 🔥 pic.twitter.com/ghCYYe1Y5Z — Luton Town FC (@LutonTown) November 26, 2023 More Luton Town news from eurosuperfootb

 Chelsea 3 - 0 Luton Town From a Chelsea perspective, the big team news before kick-off was the presence of Moises Caicedo in the starting line-up for his full debut. He replaced the injured Carney Chukwuemeka. As expected before the match, Chelsea dominated possession throughout the game. It didn’t take long for the Blues to find a way past the defence and force the first save. A loose ball followed a set-piece dropped toward Sterling but his fierce volley was well held by Thomas Kaminski. It wasn't long before Raheem Sterling gave Chelsea a deserved lead, weaving his way through the Hatters defence to score a fine solo goal. The Blues had to be patient before securing the emphatic scoreline that the home side's dominance deserved. This began with Sterling netting his second after half-time by turning in Malo Gusto's low cross. Jackson then scored Chelsea's third goal via a similar route, Sterling providing the ball for him to slide in. Ultimately, this proved to

Coventry City 1 -1 Luton Town (Luton won 6-5 on penalties.) Luton Town completed their journey from non-league to Premier League. Both sets of fans created an incredible atmosphere during the match They beat Coventry City on penalties to win the Championship play-off final at Wembley. Away from the raucous atmosphere of the play-off semi-final at Kenilworth Road, some were concerned that Luton might struggle in the more vast space of Wembley. However, they were by far the more dominant side before the break. Aside from the one goal they did score, they had two more disallowed - and a string of other dangerous moments too.

Match report Trailing 2-1 following the first game at the Stadium of Light, Luton turned their aerial threat into a reward as centre-backs Gabriel Osho and Tom Lockyer scored before the break. Roared on by a raucous home support inside their Kenilworth Road home, Luton should have made it three when keeper Anthony Patterson misdirected a clearance, and Jordan Clark then blazed wastefully over. <Click here for more Luton Town news> More heroics from Luton Town Luton Town are one win away from returning to the top flight of English football for the first time since 1992.

Queens Park Rangers climbed to fifth in the Championship with victory over Luton Town.  Chris Willock gave the home side the lead with a perfectly-weighted dink over the onrushing Simon Sluga after a fine lofted route-one pass from deep by Ilias Chair in an entertaining first-half. Charlie Austin buried his header past the Hatters' Croatian goalkeeper early in the second Ilias Chair might have made it easier for QPR but his rising drive soared over early on.  Highlights Watch the highlights of the match in the video below. One QPR fan asked an interesting question in the comments section: "Are we brave or good enough to stay in top 6?" Reaction QPR boss Mark Warburton told BBC Radio London: "They were two really important goals as well, and at important times as well. The first one it was nice to see was a direct ball, it was a quick release and the keeper made Chris' mind up for him really, but he executed it well. "We had that lead, we were a little bi
