History of the Luton Town v Hull City fixture

Luton Town prepare to entertain Hull City at Kenilworth Road on Tuesday evening, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 8 of the 19 previous games, with the The Hatters winning just 7.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Kenilworth Road was just last season, in February 2006, with Hull City inflicting a narrow 2-3 defeat upon the The Hatters in a Championship match.

Recent respective form guides

Luton Town's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While The Hatters have scored 8, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.

Hull City's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the The Tigers have hit 8 goals, 13 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Luton Town are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola Championship with a return of just 36 points from their 37 games thus far. Hull City are currently lying in 19th place in Coca-Cola Championship having mustered a points tally of 38 from their 37 matches played.
