Luis Diaz returned to the Liverpool squad and scored off the bench to secure a 1-1 draw at Luton Town on Sunday.

The Colombian had missed the past few matches after the shocking kidnapping of his parents, but opted to make his comeback - and duly netted deep into stoppage time to seal a point, after Tahith Chong’s late goal looked to have claimed a famous win for the Hatters.

A point apiece keeps Luton in the bottom three and lifts Liverpool to third, ahead of Arsenal.

During the match one fan was removed from the pitch for running on waving a Palestine flag, shortly after Luton had scored their opener.

The game is paused because Kabore seems to have something in his eye. The right-back goes off to receive more treatment and Luton will have to defend a corner a man down.

BIG SAVE! A brilliant injection of pace from Gravenberch sees him reach the edge of the Luton box, drawing out the defenders and creating the space to feed Jota. The Portugal international pulls the trigger first time, firing towards the bottom corner, though Kaminski gets down to his right and paws it away.

Edwards will be pleased with his team's display to this point, though he will be keen for more of an attacking threat having watched his side manage just one shot on target.

Luton Town vs Liverpool

Luton are yet to keep a Premier League clean sheet in 10 games this season, the first time they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their opening 10 league games since 2019-20 in the Championship. They have held firm so far here, though.

Luton Town vs Liverpool

Nunez has already had five shots, at least four more than any other player on the pitch. His xG (expected goals) of 0.29 is almost double Luton's (0.15).

Nunez shows a great leap to rise above Kabore and nod Salah's cross goalwards, but he cannot get his header on target and Kaminski watches it go over his crossbar.

Luton Town vs Liverpool

Liverpool have lost just one of their last 10 meetings with the Hatters in all competitions (five wins, four draws), going down 3-1 at Kenilworth Road in February 1991.

Luton Town vs Liverpool

Szoboszlai's free-kick delivery is headed out by Mengi, but only to the waiting Salah. The winger hits it first time, but his effort is very poor and flies high over the crossbar.

Luton Town vs Liverpool

Twenty minutes on the clock at Kenilworth Road, and both teams have certainly had their chances. Nunez went the closest when he struck the woodwork, though the scoreline remains 0-0.

Luton Town vs Liverpool

Nunez has now hit the woodwork twice as many times as any other player in the Premier League this season (four).
