Luton vs Burnley Predictions

Tip Reasoning

• Luton average 1.00 goals conceded per game, less than league average 1.22
• Burnley are unbeaten in 11 games
• Luton have conceded just two goals in their last five league games

Luton the surprise package

When predicting how the league table would look at the start of the season, few would’ve had Luton Town quite as high as they are. Currently sitting in fourth, they face a visit from runaway league leaders Burnley, with hopes of causing an upset.

Having conceded just two goals in their last five league games, Luton will take confidence from Burnley’s struggle to score against Watford, but the Clarets will not have lost confidence from that draw, since a late goal from a corner kept their unbeaten run intact.

Luton could make this game difficult for the visitors, and a prediction of under 2.5 goals looks good, as the Hatters will look to keep tight and frustrate a dangerous Burnley side.

Unstoppable Burnley

Burnley have been the runaway team in contention for the Championship title for a while now, and go into every game with a sense of inevitability about them. Snatching a point with a late corner last time out, the Clarets simply do not tolerate losses, and will be looking to keep their unbeaten league run going on Saturday.

Despite Luton’s recent defensive strength, this Burnley side may have just a bit too much for them, so a correct score prediction of 1-0 Burnley feels likely when looking at the form and strengths of both teams.
