Cardiff will hope to keep up the run of clean sheets at CCS when Luton visit tonight. But more important is the need to find the net at the other end. City have'nt scored in the last three games and although picking up two draws in those matches the lack of goals is a concern.
Steve Morison on Luton: "They've signed really well this summer. They've got a good manager, that gets the best out of them. It's going to be one hell of a game.
"We watched them on Friday night against Sheffield United. It could've gone either way. They'll come here and they'll want to repeat the result they got here last year.
"For our boys, it's another challenge. It's a game where we have to stand up and be counted."
