Ross Barkley - Returns to training Barkley (undisclosed) is back in training, but will not be fit for Saturday's clash with Wolverhampton, according to manager Rob Edwards per the BBC.

Impact Barkley had to sit out last match with an undisclosed injury and is set to miss his second in a row. He had started the two games appeared in thus far, totaling five crosses (four accurate), two interceptions and two clearances. Albert Sambi Lokonga is expected to start again in the midfield for Saturday's match.

Albert Sambi Lokonga - Created one chance in debut Lokonga had two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Fulham.

Impact Lokonga had a quiet outing and couldn't not help Luton Town avoid the loss on the road. The midfielder created just one chance before subbing off in the 74th minute. That was his debut for the club, after missing their first four games dealing with a strain.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Tom Lockyer - Makes three clearances in return Lockyer generated one shot (zero on goal) in Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Fulham.

Impact Lockyer had a decent outing on defense, but it wasn't enough to avoid the road loss. The centerback was back in the starting XI after missing the previous game with a quadriceps injury. He co-led his side in clearances during the match.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Tahith Chong - Picks up yellow card at Fulham Chong recorded one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 1-0 defeat against Fulham. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 27th minute.

Impact Chong had a pretty quiet outing and could not do much to avoid Luton Town's road loss. The midfielder has yet to create a single chance after four starts so far. He also received his first yellow card of the season in the match, though.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Thomas Kaminski - Makes one save in loss Kaminski had one save and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-0 loss against Fulham. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 37th minute.

Impact Kaminski had a quiet outing, but conceded once in the second half as Luton Town ended up with the road loss. The goalkeeper made just one save for the second game in a row. He will now look to bounce back against Wolverhampton on Saturday.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Alfie Doughty - Makes substitute appearance Doughty (Achilles) played 16 minutes off the bench versus Fulham on Saturday.

Impact Doughty has made just one start through the first four matches with Luton, recording 140 minutes in which he tallied one shot (off target), 13 crosses (one accurate) and six corners. If he can secure more appearances in the starting XI, the defender would offer more fantasy upside and be in the mix for some corner-taking duties.

Albert Sambi Lokonga - Starts in Luton debut Lokonga (strain) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's match against Fulham.

Impact Lokonga was loaned to Luton Town from Arsenal on deadline day but was dealing with a strain, so he was unable to make his debut before the international break. If healthy, he should be a mainstay for the Hatters in central midfield.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Tom Lockyer - Starts, captains against Fulham Lockyer (quadriceps) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Fulham.

Impact There are no real surprises here, as manager Rob Edwards had already said Lockyer would be available to take on The Cottagers. He will again lead and anchor the defense, though the team's defensive woes limit Lockyer's fantasy upside in most formats.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Alfie Doughty - Expected to return Doughty (Achilles) wasn't mentioned among the injured for Saturday's trip to Fulham by manager Rob Edwards.

Impact Doughty suffered an Achilles injury during a clash with West Ham before the international break but seems to have avoided a major issue. Doughty should be back in the first team for Saturday's trip, though it's not clear if he or Issa Kabore will get the start.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Albert Sambi Lokonga - Available for debut Lokonga (strain) is available for Saturday's trip to Fulham, according to manager Rob Edwards. "[Lokonga] is ready and available for selection."

Impact Lokonga has yet to appear since making the switch to Luton Town but it appears the international break was enough time for the midfielder to get back to fitness. Lokonga was loaned to Luton for the 2023/24 season after making 15 Premier League appearances (eight starts) in 2022/23 for Crystal Palace and Arsenal.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Tom Lockyer - Available Saturday Lockyer (quadriceps) is available for Saturday's trip to Fulham, according to manager Rob Edwards.

Impact Lockyer was unavailable for Wales throughout the international break due to a quadriceps issue. The defender is now an option back in Premier League action and could even get the start. If Lockyer is only fit enough for the bench it would be Reece Burke who retains a place in the starting XI.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Tahith Chong - Starting regularly thus far Chong has started all three matches for Luton Town in the 2023/24 Premier League campaign, but he's yet to score a goal or provide an assist.

Impact Chong has been used as a central midfielder by the Hatters, but that's an odd fit for a player who has spent his entire career making a living from byline runs and operating on the wing. Chong has tree shots, four crosses, six tackles and two interceptions on the season, and his fantasy upside will remain limited if he continues to operate in that midfield role.

SEPTEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ryan Giles - Active as crossing threat Giles has started all three matches for Luton Town in the 2023/24 Premier League season, racking up one shot, four chances created, 32 crosses, 11 corners and seven clearances.

Impact Either as a left-back or as a left wing-back, Giles has been ever present for Luton so far in the 2023/24 Premier League campaign. He provides decent value as a crossing threat, as evidenced by his average of 10.7 crosses per match so far.

SEPTEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Tom Lockyer - Out during break Lockyer will not play for Wales over the international break because of a quad injury.

Impact Lockyer suffered the injury at some point last week, possibly in Thursday's final training session. If that's the case, he'll have just over two weeks of rest before the Sept. 16 trip to Fulham. Given it's a muscle injury, there's no guarantee he'll be ready and Reece Burke could be set for another start next to Amari'i Bell and Mads Juel Andersen on the back line.

SEPTEMBER 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Marvelous Nakamba - Makes two interceptions in loss Nakamba generated one cross (one accurate) and two chances created in Friday's 2-1 defeat to West Ham United. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 87th minute.

Impact Nakamba had a good all-around performance, but couldn't help Luton Town avoid the third loss in three games in the season. The midfielder led his side in interceptions during the match. He also received his second yellow card in three starts, though.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Carlton Morris - Assists at West Ham Morris assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Friday's 2-1 defeat versus West Ham United.

Impact Morris assisted Mads Juel Andersen's goal in the 92nd minute, but it wasn't enough to avoid the loss on the road. The forward now has one assist in the season, to go with one goal. He also took the second-most shots for his side in the match.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Mads Andersen - Scores in road loss Andersen scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and made six clearances in Friday's 2-1 defeat to West Ham United.

Impact Andersen scored in the 92nd minute to cut West Ham's lead to 2-1, but it was too late to avoid the road loss. That was his first goal in the season. The centerback also led his side in clearances during the match.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Thomas Kaminski - Makes one save in loss Kaminski registered one save and allowed two goals in Friday's 2-1 loss versus West Ham United.

Impact Kaminski conceded once in each half as Luton Town ended up with their third loss in three games so far. The goalkeeper allowed nine goals over that span. He will now look to bounce back when they visit Fulham on Sep 16.
