Ahmet Brkovic is expected to return to the Luton team for their final game of the season at home to promoted Sunderland.

The Croatian midfielder has missed the relegated Hatters' last three matches with an eye problem, but almost made the squad for last weekend's 3-1 win at Southend and could be included against Roy Keane's men.

But Town boss Kevin Blackwell has a doubt over defender Chris Coyne, who left the field due a head injury at Southend and might not be risked against the Black Cats.

Defender Kevin Foley misses out after being booked in for an operation to cure a long-standing heel problem.

Fellow defenders Sol Davis (calf) and Russell Perrett (ankle) are also sidelined along with midfielder Steve Robinson (back), forwards Dean Morgan and Sam Parkin (both ankle) and utility-man Paul Underwood.

The Wearsiders have a virtually full-strength squad as Keane's men seek to clinch the title at relegated Luton.

Sunderland head for Kenilworth Road knowing victory, coupled with anything less for Birmingham against Preston, will hand them their fourth Championship title in 11 years.

And their only absentee is midfielder Graham Kavanagh, who remains sidelined with an ankle injury.

Keane picked up seven Premiership titles and four FA Cup winners medals during his time as a player at Manchester United.

And he is desperate for the men who have worked so hard to fashion such a remarkable fightback to finish with a tangible reward for their efforts.

Keane said: "It would be nice to finish the season off, it would be nice for the players to get something, to get a medal."
