Tottenham's last minute equaliser at Man City on Sunday means that the Gunners hold a two-point cushion at the league’s summit and they will expect to keep up the pace as they face 17th placed Luton. Arsenal have won three matches on the bounce, with their 2-1 win at home to Wolves on Saturday providing a winning start to what will be a packed December fixture schedule.
Kenilworth Road will provide a unique setting for the match, with the tightly-packed ground offering a unique challenge to visiting teams. Liverpool and Crystal Palace have both dropped points at the ground in Luton’s past two home fixtures, with the latter providing a 2-1 win for the Hatters’ their first at home since reaching the Premier League.
The fixture will have been one of the most highly-anticipated for Luton fans, with their relative proximity to the Gunners providing an interesting subplot to the match.
There is just 12 miles to travel for Arsenal from their London Colney training ground and Luton will be keen to continue their positive recent momentum and truly stamp their mark on the Premier League.
Considering their locality to each other, it has been a remarkable 32 years since the two sides last met in a competitive fixture, with Luton winning 2-1 at Kenilworth Road in their last fixture back in 1991.It’s an important match at both ends of the table, and here is how you can follow the action:
