LINE-UP: The last Luton Town team to beat Cardiff City at Kenilworth Road in 2002

Who was in the Hatters side that day

Luton host Cardiff City this afternoon, looking for a first victory over the Bluebirds at Kenilworth Road since a 2-0 Division Two success on December 26, 2002, almost 20 years ago.

After a goalless first half, striker Tony Thorpe netted the opening goal with a clinical finish on 80 minutes, firing low past Neil Alexander.

Steve Howard then doubled the advantage in stoppage time, volleying superbly into the top corner.

Since then, Town have entertained their Welsh opponents on four more occasions, drawing two and losing two.
