History of the Brighton & Hove Albion v Luton Town fixture

Luton Town face a trip to Brighton & Hove Albion at Withdean Stadium on Saturday afternoon, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 20 out of 30 times.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in March 2006, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a Championship match.
