Luton are looking to complete a league double over Cardiff for the first time since the 1999-2000 season, having won 2-1 earlier this campaign.
Cardiff have won their last three away league games against Luton and are unbeaten in their last five visits to Kenilworth Road (W3 D2).
Luton have won four of their last five league games (L1) although they did lose their most recent game at Kenilworth Road, a 3-2 defeat to West Brom.
Since the start of last season, only Reading (38) have lost more Championship games than Cardiff City (36).
Cardiff’s last 12 league games have either been drawn (5) or won by a one-goal margin (7), with Cardiff on the losing side in five of those games.

Carlisle United v Barrow

Carlisle are unbeaten in their last 10 league games against Barrow (W6 D4) since a 5-1 defeat back in April 1960.
Barrow have only won one of their last 13 league visits to Carlisle (D5 L7), a 1-0 win in November 1959.
Carlisle United have won their last three home league matches; they haven’t won four in a row on home soil since a run of six between March and November 2020.
Barrow are unbeaten in their last three away league games (W1 D2), last enjoying a longer away unbeaten run in the EFL in December 1966 (four wins in a row).

Crewe Alexandra v Stockport County

This is Crewe’s first home league game against Stockport since April 2011, a 2-0 win for the Railwaymen.
A win for Stockport against Crewe will see them complete a league double over the Railwaymen for the first time since the 2008-09 campaign in League One.
Crewe haven’t scored more than once in any of their last 19 league games. Only once have they gone 20 league games without netting more than one goal, doing so between November 1981 and March 1982.
