Watford head coach Tom Cleverley says he wants his side to inflict more pain on struggling Luton in Saturday's derby.
Tom Cleverley was on then Watford manager Chris Wilder's backroom staff in the last meeting with Luton at Kenilworth Road in April 2023Watford head coach Tom Cleverley wants his side to inflict "more pain" on struggling Luton on Saturday as the Hornets try to iron out their own inconsistent form.
By contrast, the Hatters are 21st and have only two wins from nine matches so far as they adapt slowly to life back in the second tier following last season's relegation from the Premier League."Doing the basics will bring you consistency in this division and we've been hurt when we've not done that."After winning their first five games of the season, including three in the Championship, Watford's results took a dip."Now it's time to take two more forward.
That season was the last time Watford won at Kenilworth Road, beating the Hatters 2-1 in January 2006. "It's a fixture that's not been played a lot over the last few decades and it's a long time since a Watford team has won there," he said.
