Is Luton Town v West Brom on TV? Kick off time, channel, team news and how to watch Championship fixture

West Brom hope to end their six-match winless run when they face another team out of form in Luton Town in the EFL Championship.

The Baggies played to a goalless draw last time out against Cardiff City, and goals are proving hard to come by. In the six matches that they've failed to win in, they've scored three times, and two of those came against the same opponent.

Luton are in a worse off position and are inside the relegation zone, despite many predicting them as well placed to bounce back from their relegation from the Premier League. They led 2-0 against Coventry City but the game turned on its head when Haji Wright scored the winner for the Sky Blues after Tom Holmes was dismissed.

Tonight is a chance for either side to get a win that can build up their confidence ahead of the international break which comes next week. Here’s all you need to know about the match.

When is Luton Town v West Brom?

The two sides meet at Kenilworth Road on Friday, November 1. Kick-off is at 8.00 pm.

Team news

Semi Ajayi, Kyle Bartley, Daryl Dike, and Paddy McNair have all been ruled out of the match this week. Ajayi and McNair both came off against Cardiff City with hamstring injuries, and will be spending time on the sidelines.

Ajayi is out until February, and McNair is out for two months, so he might have played his last game for the club as he’s only on loan until the end of December. Daryl Dike suffered an injury in training as he bid to make a return from an Achilles problem.

Who is the referee?

Tonight's referee is Dean Whitestone, and he will be supported by Daniel Leach and Hristo Karaivanov as his linesman with Andy Davies the fourth official. Whitestone has overseen nine games this season, brandishing 33 yellow cards.

He's already officiated a Luton match this season, and that was the Hatters' 1-0 defeat to Preston North End in late August. His last West Brom match was their 2023/24 opening day defeat to Blackburn Rovers in August 2023.
