Luton to Win or Draw
Playing at Kenilworth Road, Luton Town won three and drew seven games this term in the Championship. According to the statistics, there is a 46% possibility for this game to end in a draw.
Over 2 Goals
The goals statistics show that 75% of Luton Town’s home games and 75% of West Brom’s away games produced two or more goals. In addition, four of the last five h2hs also ended with over two strikes.
West Brom 0 Goal Handicap
West Brom had the better of this confrontation in the last six meetings. In detail. West Brom won four and drew one of the six h2hs and covered the suggested handicap in five of those games.
Luton Town
Luton returned from Huddersfield with their second consecutive away win and their third in a row after a 1-2 victory. With that win, the Hatters are now seventh on the Championship table with 39 points and are closing in on a playoff berth.
Luton’s recent success is due to their defense who conceded 15.4% fewer goals in the last eight games with an average of 0.88 goals per game. Moreover, Luton are undefeated in their last eight home matches and scored two or more goals in their last three games.
West Brom
Like their hosts, West Brom are on a three-match winning streak as well thanks to a 1-0 home win over Reading in the previous round. The Baggies are currently sitting in the ninth position with 38 points and would overtake Luton in case of a win.
After a very slow start to the season during which they won one of their first 13 games, West Brom improved immensely and won nine of their last 13 games. As a result, the Baggies’ points intake improved by 80% from 1.46 in the season to 2.46 in the last eight rounds.
Both teams are in similar forms as we can see from their recent games. Nonetheless, a draw is the most probable outcome in our opinion which happened in seven of Luton’s 12 home games. Thus we will back a double chance of a home win or draw.
West Brom scored at least a goal in eight of their previous nine games and are averaging one goal per game scored in their 12 away games. With odds of 1.68 at 1xBet, we predict West Brom to score one or more goals and consider it as our safe bet.
