History of the Luton Town v Bournemouth fixture

Luton Town are ready to welcome Bournemouth to Kenilworth Road on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Hatters are clearly on top, having won 13 and lost only 6 of the 25 games.

The previous match played between the two at Kenilworth Road was more than three years back, in August 2000, the Hatters carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a League Division Two match.
