Derby six-pointer is a 'must-win game' - Clark

Luton Town midfielder Jordan Clark says the trip to Championship relegation rivals Derby County on Good Friday is a "must-win game".

The Hatters are 23rd and three points from safety below the Rams, who occupy 21st position, ahead of the clash at Pride Park.

Clark said Saturday's 1-0 defeat at home to Blackburn was a "tough one to take" and that "a lack of cutting edge in the final third killed us".

It's been a familiar theme for Luton who have scored fewer goals (37) than any other side in the league this season.

"Disappointed with the lack of quality and decision-making in the final third which we work on every day and it's been a bit of a problem for us this season really," Clark said.

"[If] you get a point, then Friday's game is a massive game because then you're going there to get out of the relegation zone, which obviously with the goal difference we can't, which is disappointing."

Perhaps the only silver lining for Luton is that the sides directly above them in the survival scrap didn't fully capitalise as Cardiff lost, while Derby, Hull and Portsmouth all drew.

"You've got to look for favours around, which you shouldn't do but sometimes you have to," Clark added.

"It's one of them now, Friday is obviously a must-win game. It'll be a great atmosphere, a great game to play in and we need the three points."
