Luton Town Preview – Can the Hatters respond from Huddersfield defeat?
No matter what happens from now until the end of the season, Luton Town have had an outstanding Championship campaign. The Hatters have fired their way into promotion contention after a string of good results since the turn of the year.
Luton must dust themselves down and go again after losing to fellow promotion hopefuls Huddersfield Town last time out. The Hatters missed a penalty with the score at 1-0, and the Terriers went on to pick up a 2-0 victory at the John Smith’s Stadium.
Can Luton get back to winning ways in front of their home supporters on Friday. Three points would be huge and would take Town above Forest in the table.
Nottingham Forest Preview – Will the Reds’ impressive unbeaten run go on?
After taking over in September, Steve Cooper has taken Nottingham Forest from relegation fodder and turned them into genuine promotion candidates. It has been a truly remarkable turnaround at the City Ground.
Since a 1-0 home reverse to Huddersfield on 30th December, Nottingham Forest have suffered just one Championship loss in the following 14. They were beaten at Cardiff City in late January but have bounced back with seven wins and three draws from ten.
