Liverpool will be desperate to avoid a banana-skin fixture when Jurgen Klopp makes his first visit to Kenilworth Road to face Luton Town this weekend.have enjoyed a flying start to the season with only one defeat in all competitions so far but have struggled against the newly promoted sides in recent times.Liverpool now return to Premier League action where they sit in fourth on 23 points, three adrift of table-toppers Tottenham.
But the Reds are only behind Aston Villa and Newcastle for goals scored this term and Luton are yet to keep a Premier League clean sheet. Luton are unbeaten in their last four home league games against Liverpool , with this the first such meeting since a goalless draw in August 1991.The hosts were not in Carabao Cup action in midweek but long-term absentees Mads Andersen and Dan Potts remain sidelined but both Reece Burke and Arsenal loanee Albert Sambi Lokonga are closing in on comebacks.
Only James Ward-Prowse has created more chances via set plays than Luton’s Alfie Doughty this season. Doughty has also made 23 successful crosses, with only Kieran Trippier having more . Klopp was quick to heap praise on academy defender Jarell Quansah, who impressed in the win over Bournemouth. " Everybody was really working extremely hard and that's what you want. And now we drive home, long trip but we would have had to do that anyway. But with going to the next round, it feels much better."Luton are yet to keep a Premier League clean sheet in 10 games this season, the first time they’ve failed to keep a clean sheet in their opening 10 league games since 2019-20 in the Championship.
