Tahith Chong Set to Miss Luton Town’s Clash with Oxford United Due to Injury
Luton Town midfielder Tahith Chong has been ruled out of action after picking up a knock, dealing a blow to the Hatters as they prepare to face Oxford United in their upcoming Championship fixture on Tuesday.
The former Manchester United youngster, who has been an influential figure for Luton this season, sustained the injury during recent training sessions. The extent of the knock remains unclear, but the club has confirmed that Chong will miss at least a few games as he recovers.
Chong’s absence leaves a gap in Luton Town’s midfield, with manager Rob Edwards facing a selection dilemma ahead of the Oxford United game. Edwards will be keen to maintain his side’s momentum in what has been a challenging campaign so far.
Luton Town, currently looking to climb the Championship table, will need to adjust their game plan without the creative spark Chong brings to the midfield. The Hatters will be hoping for a swift recovery, with key fixtures ahead in their push for a strong finish this season.
Oxford United, currently in a good run of form, will look to capitalize on Chong’s absence as they aim to secure valuable points away from home. However, Luton’s home support and tactical resilience could still make for a fiercely contested match.
Fans will be keeping a close eye on Chong’s progress, hoping to see him back on the pitch soon as Luton Town continue their quest for success in the Championship.
