16 September 2022

Luton defender Reece Burke remains doubtful for the visit of Blackburn.

The centre-back took a blow to his ribs in training and was not able to play in Wednesday’s draw with Coventry.

Fellow defender Tom Lockyer could come back into a side which has kept only two clean sheets all season and looked defensively shaky in midweek.

Striker Elijah Adebayo, goalless this season, could make a quick return after being dropped as Harry Cornick was substituted at half-time with a tight hamstring.

Blackburn midfielder Sammie Szmodics could return to the squad after being left out for the midweek win over Watford.

The summer signing had missed two matches after a concussion injury but manager Jon Dahl Tomasson opted not to select him in the 18 on Tuesday.

Jack Vale has been struggling with a calf problem and he was also left out of the midweek squad.

Defender Callum Brittain and Sam Gallagher are due back from muscular injuries after the international break.
