Substitution Thomas Alun Lockyer Jacob Samuel Brown

Luton have now failed to score a first-half goal in 13 of their 14 Premier League games, more often than any other team in the English top flight this season. However, the Hatters have netted a league-high 83 per cent of their goals during the second half, with eight coming in the final 15 minutes - Brentford beware!

Lacking much in the way of spectacle, but certainly not short of endeavour from both sides, a first half bereft of clear-cut goal chances ends with the scores still level. Brentford may have totally dominated possession - having no less than 77 per cent - but they have struggled to carve open an obdurate Luton team happy to suffer long spells without the ball. Mbeumo has been the brightest spark, but the Cameroon international's radar has been off when it comes to shots on goal.

HALF-TIME: BRENTFORD 0-0 LUTON TOWN

In the first minute of at least two added on for stoppages, Maupay swivels and strikes the ball from 20 yards out. It's sliced well over the top, though, and it seems the first half will end goalless.

Following a flick off Mengi's head in the Luton area, Kabore deflects the ball on to his own arm, prompting Brentford's fans to appeal for a penalty. However, neither the referee nor VAR are interested, so the game goes on.

Ghoddos swings a cross over from the right flank, but it hangs a little too high, and Kaminski plucks the ball out of the air without any trouble. The hosts' pressure continues, but Luton are standing firm so far.
