Match context

Form
Huddersfield WWWWD (13-4) — five straight wins and a draw, four of them by two-plus; Luton WWWWL (10-5), four consecutive league wins before a 2-1 loss at MK Dons. Both scoring freely.
History
Two recently-relegated-from-Championship-level clubs now both in League One 2026/27, close in stature: Huddersfield sit 1st (28 pts/13), Luton 4th (23 pts/13).

Both sides are in the promotion/play-off race with everythin…
