PICTURE SPECIAL: A new chapter in the 118-year story of Kenilworth Road will be written when Luton Town host West Ham in their first top-flight home clash since 1991-92 on Friday night

It will be a memorable night at Kenilworth Road on Friday night as Luton Town take on West Ham in their first top-flight home game since relegation in 1991-92 — the season before the Premier League began.

The ground’s history is storied.

Home of Luton since 1905, it has hosted matches from the old Division One to the Southern League and welcomed a highest attendance of 30,069 (against Blackpool in 1959) to a low of 875 (an EFL Trophy clash with MK Dons in 2018).

To celebrate this rich history, we took a look through the Mail Sport archives and picked out some of the most evocative images from this famous ground over the last 118 years.
