Luton take on Everton at Kenilworth Road this evening attempting to secure a first home victory over the Toffees for over 30 years.
That day, back on January 21, 1989, the Hatters triumphed 1-0 thanks to a fantastic finish from Roy Wegerle, who blasted home a marvellous finish after collecting David Preece’s pass over the visiting defence. To find out just who lined up for Town that day, see below.
9. MF: Kingsley Black
Midfielder went close to adding to his tally for the campaign, seeing his header pushed away by Welsh international Neville Southall. Enjoyed a terrific season as he was joint top of the scorers chart, netting nine goals in total from 37 matches, notching a brace as Luton hammered West Ham 4-1 as well. Photo: Hatters Heritage
10. FW: Roy Wegerle
Had already sent a low cross across goal, before he bagged what turned out to be the winner on just four minutes, producing a terrific thumping finish into the top corner after being picked out by Preece's incisive pass, netting what was his seventh of the season. Scored once more afterwards, as he finished with eight from his 30 Division One outings for the Hatters that season. Photo: Hatters Heritage
11. FW: Mick Harford
Back after suspension as he had missed the 3-0 defeat against Charlton Athletic previously. Had a handful of chances on the day, heading wide from a Preece cross, while he also put another delivery from Hill straight at Toffees stopper Neville Southall. Eventually finished with seven goals during the season from his 33 matches. Photo: Hatters Heritage
12. Sub used: Rob Johnson
Came off the bench to replace Danny Wilson for the final six minutes as the defender made his 21st league appearance of the season for the Hatters, but his last in a Luton Town shirt, as he went to join former Town boss David Pleat at Leicester City. Photo: Hatters Heritage
