Manchester City loanee Issa Kabore and Tahith Chong came in.<\/p>\n<p>After a cagey start, the first shot came 27 minutes in as Brentford played a short corner and Yehor Yarmolyuk\u2019s strike took a wicked deflection and went just wide.<\/p>\n<p>Bryan Mbuemo then came close with a left-footed strike from outside the box and when Luton keeper Thomas Kaminski was booked for time wasting in the 37th minute, it told the story of a dire first half.<\/p>\n<p>Five minutes before the break, Kaminski was finally forced to make a save but Yoanne Wissa\u2019s attempt was weak and despite parrying the ball, the Belgian keeper clung on to it at the second attempt.<\/p>\n<p>Despite having just 23 per cent of possession in the first half, Edwards would have been impressed with the way his side limited Brentford\u2019s chances but he was forced to make a change at the interval after Lockyer went down on the pitch with a leg injury, shortly after Anthony Taylor blew the whistle.<\/p>\n<p><img
