They came more in hope than expectation. But while the wait for a first-ever Premier League point goes on after substitute Carlos Vinícius secured Fulham’s first home win of the season, Luton’s supporters still have plenty of reason to feel optimistic despite now occupying bottom spot.
Having conceded nine goals in their first three matches at football’s top table, this was a markedly improved performance from Rob Edwards’ side 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 both spurning excellent chances that could have made this a very different scoreline.
