Reading vs Luton Predictions

Luton can make the perfect start

Luton are on a winning run of two straight away games, and they can get another win at Reading on Saturday. It is three games since Reading last won at home in League One.

Luton finished seventh last season with 74 points, having won 21 games, narrowly missing the playoffs, while they lifted the EFL Trophy. Reading finished 12th with 63 points from 16 wins, 15 draws and 15 defeats, and they look bound for midtable again.

Luton are bidding to pick up where they left off, having won four of their last five League One away games and going into this match on the back of three consecutive victories. In contrast, Reading have failed to win in seven of their last eight league matches.

Luton are in form going forward, having scored at least twice in ten of their last 12 League One games to end last season. They also scored at least twice in their last seven league games.

The Hatters finished last season with three straight League One wins. They won eight of their final ten games.

The home side have been vulnerable defensively. Reading failed to keep a clean sheet in their final six League One games of last season, and have gone without one in nine of their last ten at home.

A 2-1 win for Luton looks the best correct-score option. Luton have recorded two straight League One wins by a goal and ten of Reading’s 15 losses last season were via a single goal.
