Luton Town rested 10 of its top 11 in its last Friendly before the League 2 season starts and it showed. Hobro IK open the first half with 3 goals in the first 24 minutes, and was ahead 5-nil before a extra time goal by LM Jake Howells.

Luton Town ends its exhibition season with 1 draw and 2 losses, leaving its manager skeptical of its league prospects. "There's clearly lots of work to do here," he said. "The defense gave up 9 goals in 3 games. That's not something we willing to tolerate during the season."

Luton Town's defense got caught several times losing their marks and Hobro IK was able to take advantage often. Hobro IK's Antipas scored a hat trick scoring the last 3 goals for the winning side.
