Luton vs Port Vale Predictions

Luton can outclass struggling Port Vale

Luton are seventh in League One, 17 places and 13 points above Port Vale, with eight wins from their 18 games this season. In contrast, Port Vale have won just three times so far. These sides were separated by two divisions last season, with Luton relegated from the Championship and Port Vale promoted from League Two.

Port Vale have been struggling defensively of late, failing to keep a clean sheet in six of their last seven League One games. They have not kept a clean sheet in any of their last four on the road.

The visitors need to turn things around. Five of Port Vale’s last six League One matches have ended in defeat and they have failed to win any of their last four away games.

Luton will be upbeat about their prospects of finding the net, having scored an average of 2.25 goals a game in their four League One games against teams in the bottom six this season.

Luton may be able to edge out Port Vale in a close game, with a 2-1 home win the correct-score pick. The visitors are on a three-game losing run away from home and have lost two League One games on the spin by a single goal.
