Manchester United go into today’s game eight points off the top four, whilst Luton just one place and point above the relegation zone.
Manchester United are aiming to win five consecutive matches in all competitions for the first time since January 2023. They currently sit in sixth place in the Premier League, eight points behind the top four after Aston Villa's victory over Fulham yesterday.
Today marks a reunion for Luton defender Teden Mengi, who used to be on the books at Manchester United. Luton manager Rob Edwards has praised the young defender for his performances and quick adaptation to his new surroundings.
The reverse fixture in November ended in a 1-0 victory for Manchester United. The last league meeting between these two teams at Kenilworth Road was in April 1992, resulting in a 1-1 draw.
Luton are currently one place and one point above the relegation zone, but a win today would give them a four-point cushion.
