Luton Town face a trip to Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The The Hatters will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them taste defeat on 15 occassions, and draw 9, from the 26 games played.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in November 2003, when they played out a goalless draw in a League Division Two match.
