The Championship tie at Kenilworth Road on Wednesday sees home team Luton up against Coventry. The last three times Luton faced Coventry in the Championship, they were absolutely flawless, winning 1-0, 5-0 and 2-0 respectively. Luton go into the game this coming Wednesday at the best betting odds of 2.10 for a fourth win on the bounce.

Luton approach round 10 as number 18 in the Championship table with nine points on their account so far. With eight rounds behind them, Coventry have amassed one points, placing them as number 24 in the standings. The hosts are currently 18th in the Championship standings with nine points after eight rounds. Coventry are trailing behind them on one points, which makes them 24th in the rankings ahead of their next game.

With both Luton and Coventry coming off disappointing defeats in their previous outing, we could be in for a cautious battle. Both will be eager to get back to winning ways sooner rather than later.

Luton are not a high scoring team these days, as they only found the back of the net eight times in the last ten outings. That is an average of just 0.8 goals per game, as they conceded ten goals. They managed two clean sheets in these matches.

Coventry are currently decent goalscorers, as they managed a bearable 11 goals in the past ten outings for an average of 1.1 goals a game. Their opponents scored a total of 19 goals, and while Coventry claimed one clean sheets, they conceded an average of 1.9 goals per match.

Luton vs Coventry Prediction

Luton have seen it all in their last three matches, which added four points to their account. They first shared the points in a 1-1 draw with Sheffield United, before claiming 3 points in a 1-2 win against Cardiff. Unfortunately for them, this was followed by a 1-2 defeat at the hands of Wigan. Luton just have a single home win to show from their efforts in the past six Championship matches at the Kenilworth Road. They also drew three and lost two of these six encounters, in which they scored four and conceded five goals.

Luton have their target set on sneaking inside the top six of the Championship this season, and they have the qualities to at least a finish inside the top third.

Coventry endured a tough spell in their last three matches, from which they have nothing to show. They were beaten 3-2 by Hull, before Preston ran out 0-1 winners. A third defeat on the trot followed against Norwich, who came out 3-0 winners. Coventry are winless in their last six away games in the Championship, in which they drew three and lost three. They conceded 11 goals while scoring six themselves.

Coventry entered the season dreaming of medals, but find themselves far off track following a lousy run of form.

Luton don't score many goals but, they are equally tough to crack down. This makes for a low scoring match, when Coventry come visiting this coming Wednesday.

Tips

Under 2.5

Luton find it just as tough as Coventry to get on the scoreboard these days, and a match short on goal looks highly likely, when they clash at Kenilworth Road.

BTTS: Yes

Coventry and Luton seem to find it tough getting their defensively lines in order, as they both concede too many goals. We hope the trend continues on Wednesday, as we aim for both teams to score.

Luton to win

Are Luton good enough currently to justify the prices with the bookies, when they face Coventry at Kenilworth Road? It could be tight, but strength in squad and match history still makes the home side our choice in the betting market.
