Leeds are beginning to struggle in their chase for the Championship title after losing the top position to Sheffield United. They will be eager to return to winning ways as they face Luton, who are battling against relegation.
Daniel Farke's team has dropped points in four of their last five league matches, with disappointing 2-2 draws against Queen's Park Rangers and Swansea.
With only seven games left, Leeds are two points behind Sheffield United but are also just ahead of Burnley in third place on goal difference. Any more setbacks could harm their chances of automatic promotion.
Hosts Luton are also in need of points, sitting second from bottom and fighting to avoid another relegation. However, under former Wycombe manager Matt Bloomfield, the Hatters have started to find some consistency with ten points from their last four games.
Team news
Luton's Reece Burke, who started last weekend for the first time since November, is expected to keep his place. Tahith Chong and Amari'i Bell are also back in contention, while Jacob Brown is likely to miss the rest of the season. Teden Mengi, Shandon Baptiste, and Marvelous Nakamba are out due to injuries.
Leeds might give Willy Gnonto a starting position after his goal coming off the bench in the recent match. Patrick Bamford and Max Wober are also back in contention, giving Farke a fully-fit squad to choose from.
The stats
Luton have lost only one of their last five Championship games and have kept three clean sheets in that period.
Leeds have won just one of their last five league matches, with recent points dropped in away games against Portsmouth and QPR.
In nine of Luton's last 11 league matches, there have been two or fewer goals scored.
Leeds have not lost in their last seven encounters with Luton, but five of those games had less than 2.5 goals.
Only one of Luton's last seven home league matches has seen both teams score.
Joel Piroe is Leeds's top scorer this season in the Championship with 15 goals in 39 games, and four of his last six goals have been away from home.
Prediction
Leeds seem to be feeling the pressure in the Championship title race after faltering in their recent away matches. Luton might pose a challenge as they have been improving and aiming to move away from the relegation zone.
Farke's team has only kept one clean sheet in their last seven league games. Luton, with their improved defensive record and quality players, could cause frustration for Leeds, who are showing signs of weaknesses.
