Previous Meetings |
Reading and Luton town are closely matched in their league meetings through
the years - although Reading's 4-1 win last season gave them the upper
hand with 18 wins compared to Luton's 17. In the cups Luton have beaten
the Royals once in both the FA Cup and the League cup, after a replay.
Reading of course beat Luton Town in the Simod Cup final in 1988 - a victory
which remains one of Reading's greatest triumphs. The Royals won 4-1 at
Wembley Stadium to take the trophy with goals from Michael Gilkes, Stuart
Beavon, Neil Smillie, and Mick Tait. 2000/2001 Season: |
