Ruddock could boost Hatters

Luton could have Pelly Ruddock back in action for Saturday's League Two clash with Tranmere at Kenilworth Road.

The 21-year-old defender has missed the last two games with a hamstring strain but returned to training this week.

Scott Griffiths is also back in contention after sitting out last week's FA Cup defeat of Newport, while Ross Lafayette and Alex Lawless have resumed training but may not be ready yet.

Alex Wall and Paul Connolly are both still absent, having been sidelined for just over a month and two months respectively.

Tranmere hope to have Janoi Donacien back in their ranks after boss Micky Adams complained of being "down to the bare bones" in midweek.

The central defender missed the 2-1 win over Bury on Tuesday night because of a knock picked up against Bristol Rovers, but striker Elliot Richards is unlikely to recover from his own injury in time, with Armand Gnanduillet at least available again after missing two cup games.

Danny Woodards (foot) and Jason Koumas (groin) both played for the reserves on Thursday so could come into contention, yet Cole Stockton (pelvis) and Matt Hill (Achilles) are a little further away.

Goalkeeper Owain Fon Williams is away on international duty with Wales while striker George Donnelly is also unavailable as he serves the second game of a three-match ban accrued following his dismissal against Bristol Rovers.
