The Hatters are back at home for the visit of Derby County on Saturday afternoon.

Looking for a place in the play-offs after victory against Stoke City took them to within two points of the top six, Nathan Jones' side will rely on their strong home form of late to carry them through against relegation-threatened Derby.

 

The opposition:

Derby are fighting to keep their place in the Sky bet Championship but currently find themselves eight points adrift of safety.

The Rams have won twice in their last five league matches but are unable to call upon top scorer Tom Lawrence, who is suspended for this fixture.

 

Last time we met:

The Hatters came from behind twice to earn a point at Pride Park thanks to goals from Fred Onyedinma and a towering header from Elijah Adebayo. 

Highlights from that night can be found on our YouTube channel below...
