  • Cardiff have won three of their last four away league meetings with Luton, though they lost there in 2022-23 on their last visit.
  • Luton have lost just two of their previous 14 midweek league games in the Championship (W5 D7), though did lose the most recent such game 2-1 against Sunderland.
  • Cardiff are winless in their last eight away league games (D3 L5), though could avoid defeat in three successive such games for the first time since November 2023.
