Team news & squads

Luton team news

Alfie Doughty had to leave the first leg fixture for Luton due to cramp, and his condition will require close monitoring for the upcoming match. If Doughty cannot play, Reece Burke and Daniel Potts are ready for selection as alternatives.

This situation might result in Amari’i Bell shifting to the left flank. However, barring any further issues, the hosts are expected to have a full squad available and will likely make minimal adjustments to their lineup.

Luton predicted XI: Horvath; Bell, Lockyer, Osho; Drameh, Mpanzu, Nakamba, Clark, Doughty; Adebayo, Morris

Mowbray also said that Aji Alese, who has been out with a thigh injury, trained yesterday and may be on the bench. However, Elliot Embleton, Danny Batth, Ross Stewart, Corry Evans and Dan Ballard remain sidelined due to injuries.
