Tottenham Hotspur
We’re set for our first meeting with Luton Town in the Premier League – and our first competitive match at senior level with them since we last met in the old First Division in 1992 – on Saturday (12.30pm UK).
The Hatters are in need of the points to clamber away from the lower reaches of the table, while we know that victory at Kenilworth Road would see us go top, at least until Manchester City visit Arsenal on Sunday.
