Luton Town are closing in on their season opener this weekend as they host Birmingham City in the Championship.
Saturday’s clash comes a week after their final pre-season match against West Ham, where they claimed a draw off the Premier League club.
The 1-1 at Kenilworth Road meant the Hatters were unbeaten in pre-season after previously claiming three wins on the road.
Nathan Jones’ side will be hoping to turn their recent form around against the Blues after back-to-back defeats last season which saw them concede eight goals and score none.
