They came more in hope than expectation. But while Luton’s wait for a first Premier League point goes on after substitute Carlos Vinícius secured Fulham’s first home win of the season, the away supporters still have plenty of reason to feel optimistic despite now sitting bottom.
Having conceded nine goals in their first three matches at the top table, this was a markedly improved performance from Luton as it took until midway through the second half for Fulham to find the breakthrough within minutes of Vinícius’s introduction off the bench. Up to that point, it had been the visitors who had created the better chances after weathering an early storm, with Jacob Brown and Amari’i Bell spurning excellent opportunities.
