LUTON, England — Luton has been relegated after just one season in the Premier League. The team lost 4-2 at home to Fulham on the final day of the season and joins Sheffield United and Burnley in going down to the second-tier Championship. Luton needed to beat Fulham and for Nottingham Forest, which began the day in fourth-to-last place, to lose at Burnley. There also needed to be a 12-goal swing in goal difference in Luton's favor. Forest won 2-1. It means all three teams who were promoted have been relegated immediately. Last season all three promoted teams staved off relegation for the first time since 2018.
