History of the Nottingham Forest v Luton Town fixture

Nottm. Forest play host to Luton Town at City Ground on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Forest are clearly on top, having won 15 and lost only 6 of the 28 games.

The last time the two teams met at Nottm. Forest was more than a decade ago, in March 1994, with Nottm. Forest running out comfortable 2-0 winners in a League Division One match.
