Luton finally ended their lengthy wait for an away victory when winning 2-1 at Wycombe Wanderers on Saturday.
First half goals from Kal Naismith and Kasey Palmer gave the Hatters a two-goal lead that they held on to until stoppage time, as the Chairboys pulled a consolation back. To find out how the visiting players rated on the afternoon, see below.
5. Gideon Kodua: 7.5
One of four changes to the team made by Wilshere as he replaced Izzy Jones to move into the right wingback role, his strength and ability to hold on to the ball saw the Chairboys foul him on three occasions, able to win some good free kicks on the flank for the Hatters. Sent away by a wonderful pass from Palmer in the first half as he took on a shot from a tight angle that skimmed the roof of the net. Didn't have a great deal of threat after that, as the second period saw him hold his shape well, Town setting about maintaining their lead in a highly professional manner. Off with just over 10 minutes to go, earning a brilliant ovation from the travelling Luton fans as he walked past them. Photo: David Horn
6. George Saville: 8
Recalled to the centre of the pitch as Wilshere admitted he wanted more of a presence, something he felt Town had lacked during recent away trips. Did just that though, as played a big role in Luton being able to boss the midfield battle, getting stuck into the challenge in front of him, winning his tackles and headers to prevent Wycombe getting any real foothold on proceedings. Set-piece delivery was vital to the Hatters taking the lead, his corner straight on to the head of Palmer to power home at the near post too. Booked late in the first half but then kept his discipline after that to dig in and give Luton some steel and nous in midfield during what was a fairly comfortable second period. Photo: David Horn
7. Liam Walsh: 7.5
Slipped early on when the ball came to him in a shooting position, but was able to pick up the pieces on numerous occasions with his ability to feint away from his man earning him a slither of space as he more often than not picked out a team-mate. Some lovely passes on his left foot to Lawrence, particularly in the first period, while a clever dummy allowed Town to play through the lines and get an attack going. Now up to five assists as his pinpoint corner was nodded from a few yards out by Naismith to open the scoring. Only worry after the break was that Luton might get caught in possession, and although it happened once, firmed things up afterwards to see out the win. Photo: David Horn
8. Kasey Palmer: 9
Displayed his intentions from early on with a terrific pass inside his full back for Kodua, although the wingback hadn't timed his run quite right and was flagged offside. Did it again when he somehow kept hold of the ball on a foray forward after slipping when in full flight, finding his team-mate once more for a shot that didn't miss by much. With Luton 1-0 ahead, he then doubled that advantage by scoring his second goal in two games, buffeting his way into a good position at the near post from a corner and thumping his header into the top corner. Gave it his absolute all when pressing, running his socks off for a full 89 minutes before he was replaced to give Adebayo his moment. Photo: David Horn
