Background and pre-season

[edit]

Luton Town's pre-season programme began with an away friendly match against Hitchin Town[4] before a week-long training camp in Slovenia, which included a friendly against Slovenian PrvaLiga club Bravo.[5] After returning from Slovenia, Luton played a behind-closed-doors match against Gillingham at The Brache training ground,[6][7] followed by friendlies away to Northampton Town and Peterborough United, and at home to West Ham United.[4]
