Luton were thrashed on their long-awaited return to the top flight, while Everton fluffed their lines at Goodison
GOAL! Coventry City 3-0 Middlesbrough (Lenihan og 90+1). Matt Godden whips a cross in from the right. The ball takes a huge deflection off Boro defender Darragh Lenihan and flies into the net. Game over.
Brighton v Luton. James Milner, Mahmoud Dahoud and Joao Pedro make their Brighton debuts. There’s no Moises Caicedo, currently in a holding pattern over London, unsure whether he’ll be landing at Chelsea or diverted north to Liverpool. Luton’s first top-flight starting XI since 1992 features their captain Tom Lockyer, who less than three months ago collapsed during the Championship play-off final victory over Coventry due to a heart issue.
