Town’s XI was unknown for the match that was played in three segments of 30 minutes each, as the Hatters are without a game this weekend following their home match with Burnley being postponed to give Kenilworth Road time to prepare to host a first ever Premier League match.

That will now take place on Friday, September 1 against West Ham United, although Luton are also due to entertain Gillingham in the Carabao Cup before then, that tie scheduled for Tuesday, August 29.
