Luton Town and Bristol City lock horns at Kenilworth Road in round 37 of the EFL Championship on Wednesday.
The Hatters have won their last six home games against Nigel Pearson’s men and will look to extend this fine run.
Luton Town continued to stake their claim for a place in the playoffs as they picked up an impressive 1-0 win away to second-placed Sheffield United at the weekend.

With 60 points from 36 games, Luton are currently fourth in the EFL Championship table, five points above seventh-placed Norwich just outside the playoffs places.
Meanwhile, Bristol City returned to winning ways in style as they edged Blackpool 2-0 last time out.
Prior to that, Nigel Pearson’s men were on a three-game winless run, picking up one draw and losing twice, including their 3-0 FA Cup defeat to Manchester City on March 4.
Bristol City are currently 13th in the league standings, having picked up 48 points from 36 matches so far.
