Luton's trip to fierce rivals Watford not picked for live TV coverage

Hatters' trip to Watford won't be live on Sky next month

Luton’s first trip to Watford with supporters present since April 2006 has not been picked for live coverage by Sky Sports.

The game, which is due to be played on Sunday, October 23 1at 12pm, will go ahead as planned, with Cardiff’s trip to Swansea chosen instead.

Town’s last clash with the Hornets at Vicarage Road saw Nathan Jones’ side lose 1-0 in September 2020, although they did win the home clash 1-0 thanks to James Collins’ late penalty.

With the schedule for next month’s matches released today, there have been no Luton games picked, with the Hornets on television three times, West Bromwich Albion, Reading, Stoke, QPR and Cardiff all twice.

Luton are live when they travel to Hull City at the end of the month though, that game now switched to a Friday night.
