History of the Luton Town v Chesterfield fixture

Chesterfield travel to take on Luton Town at Kenilworth Road on Monday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Spireites will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 11 and win only 3 of the 18 games.

The last time the two teams met at Luton Town was just over four years ago, in September 2004, the The Hatters carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a League One match.
