On Saturday at 12.30 p.m. UK, we’re scheduled to play Luton Town for the first time in the Premier League and in a competitive senior match for the first time since our 1992 encounter in the former First Division.
The Hatters need the points to move up the standings, and we know that a win at Kenilworth Road would put us in first place—at least until Manchester City visits Arsenal on Sunday.
Here’s everything you should know before our final match before the international break in October.
