After two games of the new season, the Hatters have taken 1 point out of a possible 6, while Preston North End, who axed Ryan Lowe, as their manager, after just one game, have fared worse, failing to take a single point from their first two games, although the recent appointment of Paul Heckingbottom may see an upturn in fortune.
Following his sending off, away to Portsmouth last weekend, the Hatters will be without their first choice keeper, Thomas Kaminski, with James Shea expected to deputise. There is also the expectation that recent signings Mark McGuiness and Liam Walsh may feature.
