Luton Town vs Crewe Alexandra Predictions & Betting Tips, Match Preview

Luton will be delighted at the start they have made to the season as they are firmly in the running for an automatic promotion place with almost a quarter of the season played. Key to their chances this season is maintaining an excellent goal-scoring record, their tally of 18 goals from 11 games is bettered only by second placed Doncaster Rovers.

The Hatters selection will be interesting to see on Saturday as they have been asked to provide the FA with ‘observations’ about their team selection for the Checkatrade Trophy win over West Brom Under 21’s on Tuesday. Boss Nathan Jones made 11 changes for the competition but the rules state their must be five of the highest appearance-makers in the squad, five players who played in the preceding fixture, or five who play in the next league match.

Crewe are also enjoying their start to the season and following their relegation to League Two hopes will be high that they can win one of the automatic promotion places. With 17 points from their opening 11 games they currently sit just outside the play-off places in eighth position.

Both of the sides are strong so picking a winner proves to be a difficult task, so instead we are going to back both teams to score at 4/6 with bet365. Luton are yet to have a home game this season where this hasn’t happened so we are backing that streak to continue.
