It was the Blades’ first game in South Yorkshire in 55 days, after a spate of postponements.
And after a flat first half, goals from Rhian Brewster and Jack Robinson sealed victory over Luton, who were reduced to 10 men in the second half when Reece Burke saw red for fouling Brewster.

1. Wes Foderingham 7
Had a fairly comfortable afternoon between the sticks, his only real work of note being a near-post save from Jerome that he did well to get down to in time. Beaten by Bradley's header but he was offside anyway Photo: Andrew Yates
2. Jayden Bogle 7
Looked a constant threat when he had the ball at his feet down the right, going past his man at ease at times with tricky nutmegs and other bits of skill. Picked up an assist for Brewster's goal, although it was more luck than judgement as his mishit shot fell into the striker's path Photo: Andrew Yates
3. Chris Basham 7
A good shift from the Bladesman as ever, even if he wasn't as involved as he'd normally expect to be. Still busting a gut to overlap even at 2-0 up and was solid defensively as well Photo: Simon Bellis
4. John Egan 7
Marshalled his defence well. A comfortable afternoon for the Irishman who will be delighted with the clean sheet after Tuesday's disappointment at Preston Photo: Simon Bellis
