that's only because Luton made the news on Saturday

so they're still fresh in the headlines. Once they fade from the headlines (by about tomorrow) so does the allure of the game.

We're looking at it from a biased Norwich point-of-view interest wise but if, say, you replaced us with a similar sized team like Swansea or Fulham I wouldn't have the slightest interest in watching them play at home to Luton and nor would anyone else now it's us.
If they were playing Man U or Liverpool it would be different because there's some romance in non-league teams playing at those legendary stadia (and because those teams draw much bigger TV audiences). That doesn't apply to Carrow Road (Luton played here in the league only about 6 years or so ago).
