Luton vs Doncaster - Glen Rea missing for Luton against Doncaster

Defender Glen Rea will miss Luton's Sky Bet League Two clash against Doncaster at Kenilworth Road.

The Republic of Ireland Under-21 international suffered a knee ligament injury in training, although the damage is not as serious as first feared.

Rea's absence will see Olly Lee keep his place in the starting line-up while teenage full-back James Justin is pushing for a start.

Top scorer Danny Hylton is expected to start after coming off the bench during the defeat to Crawley.

Doncaster defender Frazer Richardson will return to contention after missing the last two games due a knock sustained on his debut in the defeat at Crewe.

Midfielder Harry Middleton will be monitored having been withdrawn in the second half of last week's home win against Newport with a muscle strain.

Boss Darren Ferguson still has a long list of senior players out injured with Mathieu Baudry (Achilles) the closest to returning. The defender has yet to feature since joining from Leyton Orient in the summer.

Forward Gary McSheffrey, on-loan Aston Villa teenager Niall Mason (both groin) and defender Craig Alcock (ankle) are also closing in on returns while Paul Keegan, Luke McCullough, Aaron Taylor-Sinclair (all knee) and Mitchell Lund (kidney) remain sidelined.
