Hatters boss Nathan Jones has made one change to the team that drew 3-3 with Huddersfield Town in midweek for this afternoon’s trip to West Bromwich Albion, captain Sonny Bradley replacing Fred Onyedinma.

The skipper is expected to drop into the centre of Town's back three, with James Bree returning to his wing-back role.

The visitors bench looked far stronger than it had on Tuesday night as well, Luke Berry and Luke Freeman both named among the substitutes.

Under pressure Albion manager Steve Bruce gave former emergency Luton signing Alex Palmer his home league debut after the keeper replaced ex-Hatters loanee David Button between the posts for the midweek defeat against Preston North End.

Subs: David Button, Taylor Gardner-Hickman, Adam Reach, Jayson Molumby, John Swift, Tom Rogic, Karlan Grant.
