Luton Town face a trip to Hull City at The KC Stadium at lunchtime on Saturday, having the edge over their hosts in previous meetings. The visitors have won 8 of the 17 previous games, with the hosts winning just 6.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in October 2004, with Hull City running out comfortable 3 - 0 winners in a League One match.

Recent respective form guides

Hull City have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. These low-scoring games have seen just 4 goals scored and conceded.

Luton Town's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occassions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The games have constituted a decent return of 11 goals for the The Hatters, and 6 goals against.

Hull City see themselves just below half way in the Coca Cola Championship, showing a record of 9 points from their 8 games played so far, Luton Town are just outside the promotion places, in 4th, having taken 14 points from 8 games.
