The spotlight is on Fulham and Luton, as the pair go looking to boost their confidence. They face each other this coming Saturday at Craven Cottage in the Premier League.

The hosts are currently 13th in the Premier League standings with four points after four rounds. Luton are trailing behind them on zero points, which makes them 19th in the rankings ahead of their next game.

The Luton have plenty of motivation for their game against the Fulham, who are favourites to win with the bookmakers. They will be raring to get their first point under their belt in their Premier League season.

Fulham scored 15 goals, conceded 20 and fought their way to two clean sheets in their previous ten matches.

Luton scored two goals, conceded nine and kept their opponents from scoring zero times so far this season.

This is the first time that Fulham and Luton face each other in the Premier League since the 21st century began, so any previous head-to-head records stem from cup matches or friendlies.

Fulham vs Luton Prediction

Fulham Form

It is neither good nor disastrous for Fulham with just two points from their last three matches. They first drew 2-2 against Arsenal, followed by another draw. This time 1-1 against Tottenham, before going down in a 5-1 defeat against Manchester City. Fulham managed to win two of their past six home matches in the Premier League. In the remaining four, they drew one and lost three, as they scored ten and conceded 12 goals.

A struggle seems inevitable at this stage for Fulham, as the home side look to beat the drop zone and keep their Premier League status.

Luton Form

It is all or nothing with Luton, who only triumphed once in their previous three outings. They were defeated 3-0 against Chelsea, before beating Gillingham 3-2. Unable to build on that, they lost 1-2 against West Ham. In their last six Premier League away matches, Luton failed to win even once. In stead, they've drawn zero and lost two, scoring one while also conceding seven times.

It is anticipated that Luton will be stuck in the midst of a Premier League relegation battle for a significant portion of the season, as they look like a side lacking a bit in quality.

Fulham and Luton are struggling to keep opponents at bay, which makes both teams to score look like the value bet atCraven Cottage
