The Hatters (18th) and the Tricky Trees (17th) each sit on 25 points, though Forest are yet to play this weekend, after another massive goal scored by Carlton Morris (his 9th in the PL this season). Bournemouth went ahead shortly after halftime when Marcus Tavernier hammered a low, bouncing strike through traffic, but Jordan Clark equalized with a quarter-hour remaining and Morris provided yet another moment of magic in the 90th.

What’s next?

Luton will face a tough test next Saturday, when they visit three-time defending Premier League champions Manchester City. Bournemouth will host the red half of Manchester, United, also on Saturday.
