Arsenal vs Luton LIVE: Latest Premier League score and goal updates as Martin Odegaard nets opener

40 mins: Trossard tries a threaded pass into the box for Havertz but Mengi squeezes ahead of the forward and forces him wide of the ball.

It’s solid defending and the centre-back releases the ball for Luton to drive forward.

37 mins: Teden Mengi took a knock off Reiss Nelson but won the ball and a free kick for Luton as they attempt to clear their lines. Kaminski boots it long and tries to pick out Carlton Morris over on the right side of the pitch.

34 mins: Chance! Thomas Kaminski denies Emile Smith Rowe from close range.

Martin Odegaard receives the ball on the edge of the box before slipping it through to Smith Rowe. He shoots with his first touch and forces Kaminski to dive across to his left to keep out the effort.

33 mins: Luton are seeing more possession now as the urgency seems to have been eroded from Arsenal’s play. Fred Onyedinma attempts to sneak into the box from the right but can’t control the ball and Gabriel clears the danger.

30 mins: Alfie Doughty gets the ball in an advanced position but there are none of his teammates inside the box. Luton’s formation sets them up deep and they’ve got to work to get up the pitch.

When the cross comes in the Gunners clear it without issue.

27 mins: Carlton Morris makes David Raya work as Luton almost strike back immediately. He turns a cross straight into the arms of the Arsenal goalkeeper but it’s a good response from the visitors.

24 mins: There’s the opener!

A square ball in midfield sees Mpanzu bullied off the ball by Emile Smith Rowe. He sends it up to Kai Havertz who brings it to the edge of the box before slipping a pass across to Martin Odegaard.

Odegaard sets himself then drills the shot into the bottom corner!

24 mins: Leandro Trossard looks the hungriest to score for Arsenal. Firstly he creates a chance for Havertz with a dart down the left before picking out the forward with a cross.

When that attack falls apart he intercepts a pass and shoots from the left side of the area only for his effort to get blocked.

21 mins: The Gunners have had 80% possession over the opening 20 minutes or so but they’ve yet to create a truly good chance at goal yet.

Players such as Smith Rowe, Partey and Nelson are finding their feet after a lack of gametime.

18 mins: Ross Barkley does brilliantly on Luton’s left wing. He holds the ball up to draw in a couple of the Arsenal defenders before slotting a pass through to Jordan Clark.

He strides towards the box and looks for a cutback but the pass hits a red shirt and Arsenal run it away.
