Team news and recent meeting
Morgan Rogers could make his home debut for Chelsea after scoring in their 3-2 win over Fulham. Estevao may also feature after returning from a hamstring injury in Monday's victory. Luton midfielder Jordan Clark is ruled out after being hospitalised following a clash of heads during their 2-2 draw with Notts County.
The most recent meeting between the sides came in December 2023, when Luton lost 3-2 at Kenilworth Road. Chelsea took a 3-0 lead through a Cole Palmer brace and a Noni Madueke strike, before late goals from Ross Barkley and Elijah Adebayo set up a potential comeback that ultimately fell short.
