Ahead of the 16:30 kick-off against Manchester United, Elijah Adebayo felt that his hamstring was too tight to risk over the course of the game and our top-scorer looks set for a spell on the sidelines.
Also, the club recently announced that one of our summer signings, Jacob Brown, will also be sidelined for a lengthy period of time with a knee cartilage problem and has, subsequently, has an operation.
The absence of the duo leaves the Hatters a little light up-front with only Carlton Morris and Cauley Woodrow available for selection.
Of course, Rob Edwards could spring a surprise and play somebody else out of position or does the possibility exist to recall Joe Taylor from his loan spell at Lincoln City?
Naturally, the absence of Adebayor and Brown raises the question as to whether the Hatters should have brought in a recognised striker, in the January transfer window, but, as we all know, hindsight is a wonderful thing.
All we can do is hope that Morris continues his recent run of scoring form and that the resilience we’ve shown all season will see us through this particular piece of unfortunate luck.
