Luton made it 10 league games unbeaten at Kenilworth Road on Saturday as they defeated fellow play-off hopefuls Bradford City 2-1.
Jake Richards opened the scoring late in the first half, before Shayden Morris doubled the lead early in the second period. Although Stephen Humphrys pulled one back, the Hatters had done enough, and to find out how Town’s players on the day, see below.
13. Izzy Jones (SUB): 7.5
Brought on midway through the second half and moved out to the left hand side on this occasion, as his pace and attacking thrust gave some immediate and different problems to try and solve. Bent one first-time attempt wide of the target from Johnson's pass and then also went through on goal only to be denied by Bantams keeper Walker as Luton weren't happy sitting on their 2-0 lead. Occasionally took an extra touch in a dangerous area to run into trouble, but was also able to cleverly win a number of free kicks to relieve any pressure Town were under too. Photo: David Horn
14. Nahki Wells (SUB): 6
Came on to replace Kodua for the final 13 minutes as he moved out to the right hand side and his eagerness to get stuck in saw him give away a couple of needless set-pieces that allowed the visitors to load the box. Almost set up Al-Hamad to break free when he came on later, as despite dropping of the side, still showed a willingness to try and press in the closing stages. Photo: David Horn
15. Ali Al-Hamadi (SUB): 7
Fitness is holding up after coming back into the squad following his injury and continues to be used sparingly by Wilshere as he looks to build up his minutes. Came on with Saville for the final stages plus stoppage time, as he looked to get in behind and made some good breaks, one bewilderingly flagged offside and then teeing up Palmer for a low shot as well. Heated discussion with Bantams defender Tilt afterwards almost carried on down the tunnel, before being pulled away by his team-mates, but the Luton fans were more than happy to see the passion on display.

16. George Saville (SUB): 7
A good option for Wilshere to bring on late on and help manage the game for Luton as he did just that, adding some fight and experience to the midfield areas as apart from the final seconds when Bradford got their consolation, he did exactly what was asked of him. Photo: David Horn
