Luton head into Friday night's crunch Championship match as favourites for victory despite being lower down the table than their opponents. Pressure on Rob Edwards' role as Luton manager increased last weekend with a 2-0 defeat at Blackburn, leaving the side with just one win in their last five matches - a run that also includes three defeats. The Hatters head into the weekend down 19th in the Championship table in their first season back in the second tier since their relegation from the top flight last season.
What might encourage Luton fans is their recent record at Kenilworth Road, with the Bedfordshire side having lost just one of their last nine home matches since the end of August, which includes being unbeaten in their last five. Derby make the trip to Luton fresh from ending a run of six winless matches in emphatic fashion by thrashing Portsmouth 4-0 last Friday night, shooting the Rams up to 14th in the table and now seven points clear of the relegation zone, just two points off the top half. Paul Warne's side will feel optimistic of securing another positive result at the home of an underfiring Luton side, despite having won only one match away from home in all competitions.
The Rams' thum.
