No complacency from Luton boss
Luton Town know what it’s like to pull off a great escape from relegation so there will be no complacency at Peterborough United
Luton Town manager Nathan Jones will refer back to his own club’s recent experiences to ensure there is no complacency from his promotion-chasing side in tonight’s Championship fixture at struggling Peterborough United (April 5, 7.45pm).
Luton arrive tonight in 4th off the back of a 2-2 draw at the weekend that they rescued due to a late own goal. It’s been mainly their fellow play-off contenders that have tripped them up lately rather than anyone else.
