Luton Town claimed a huge 1-0 win away at fellow Championship strugglers Hull City, continuing their recent upturn in form. In a game of very few chances, the only goal came in truly bizarre fashion. Hull failed to deal with a long punt from Thomas Kaminski, and in an effort to clear, Lewie Coyle could only cannon the ball off defensive partner Alfie Jones and into the net.
The Tigers struggled to mount a fightback as the Hatters held on for a crucial three points that puts them level with 22nd-placed Derby County, who do not play until Wednesday. The loss will have Hull looking over their shoulders as they are now just three points ahead of Luton with seven games remaining. Back-to-back away wins pic.

Tom Cleverley will be hugely disappointed his side could not take all three points given their dominance in possession and several wasted chances in the second half.
Watford's fit-again Kwadwo Baah came off the bench just after the hour, and almost immediately made an impact. He flashed the ball across the box, eventually finding Giorgi Chakvetadze, who saw his shot deflected onto the bar. That was followed by efforts from Rocco Vata and Vakoun Bayo, but the Pilgrims, and goalkeeper Conor Hazard, held firm for a potentially precious point, though they are four back from Luton and Derby.
