This is the first time in history that Luton Town Club has played in the Premier League, after participating in the highest level of English football 31 years ago (at that time it was the English National Championship).
Luton Town Club's joy on the historic day of promotion to the Premier League
Luton Town's promotion was also a miracle, when this team in Bedfordshire, England, went from the 5th league straight to the 1st league in just 9 seasons. What's more strange is that the promotion forced Luton Town to spend at least 10 million pounds to upgrade their 120-year-old stadium, Kenilworth Road, to meet Premier League standards.
Luton Town's Kenilworth Road stadium has a capacity of 10,356, making it the smallest stadium in the Premier League. To enter the stadium, fans must climb stairs from neighboring houses to get inside.
According to the British press, Luton Town FC's promotion to the Premier League was like winning the lottery. "The club's 138-year history witnessed an unprecedented miracle when it was promoted to the Premier League and received more than 200 million pounds in three seasons," wrote The Mail on Sunday .

Luton Town is also the third club to be promoted to the Premier League next season after Burnley and Sheffield United (first and second in the Championship). Meanwhile, the Premier League this season will determine the remaining two relegation spots in the final round taking place at 10:30 p.m. tonight, May 28, after Southampton FC has officially been relegated.
