On Saturday, February 4, Luton Town will play Stoke City at Kenilworth Road in the EFL Championship, looking to make it three wins in a row. The Hatters are fourth in the standings with 45 points from 28 games and are coming off consecutive victories.
The team led by Rob Edwards defeated Wigan Athletic 2-0 before narrowly defeating Cardiff City 1-0 in Cardiff City’s capital. They now have a chance to win three straight games for the second time in their last seven contests. In contrast, Stoke ended their three-game losing streak against Reading with a crushing 4-0 victory, moving them up to 18th place in the league with 33 points from 28 games.
The Potters recorded their most significant league victory since their 4-0 victory over Barnsley in July 2020 thanks to goals from Will Smallbone, Tyrese Campbell, Jacob Brown, and Dwight Gayle. Following that, Alex Neil’s team defeated Stevenage 3-1 in the FA Cup’s fourth round.

Luton Town vs Stoke City Team news :
On the day of the transfer deadline, Luton brought in Joe Taylor and Marvelous Nakamba to bolster their options ahead of the final three months of the season. However, Edwards may select an unchanged starting lineup, and the pair may only be named on the substitutes’ bench at best, barring any fitness issues.
Cody Drameh, a newcomer from Leeds United, will be evaluated after making his midweek debut in his fourth game of the season. Even though Stoke played Stevenage with a back four, Neil may insist on playing with a three to match Luton’s formation.
Dujon Sterling or Ki-Jana Hoever would likely play right wing-back as a result, allowing Josh Laurent to return to center midfield. Neil must also decide whether to bring back Dwight Gayle from the front three or keep Bersant Celina in the team on the flank; however, Tuanzebe is unlikely to play this weekend after missing a year of senior competition.
