Luton vs Wolves Prediction

Luton Form

Luton managed one win in the last three matches, which was a 3-2 victory against Gillingham. They went on to lose 1-2 against West Ham, before getting dumped in a 1-0 defeat against Fulham. Luton didn't manage a single win in any of their previous six Premier League games at the Kenilworth Road. They have a record of zero draws and one defeats, in which they conceded two and scored one goals.

It has the look of a season in which a relegation battle will play a major part for Luton, who naturally dream of extending their stay in the Premier League.

Wolves Form

Wolves have been a bit bleak in their last three matches, although it started with a 5-0 win against Blackpool. Unable to follow that up, they went down 3-2 against Crystal Palace, before handing over all three points in a 1-3 defeat against Liverpool. Wolves only have one paltry win to show from the last six away games in the Premier League. In these six matches they drew zero and lost five as well as being outscored by 17 goals to three.

Wolves naturally hope for a a top half position come reckoning day next spring, but experts foresee a tough battle ahead in the lower regions of the Premier League.

Does Wolves have enough about them to take out Luton on Saturday? We are not as sure as odds suggest, but considering aspects like form, strength in squad and match history, we believe they'll come through in the end.

Luton so far pulled off a record of zero wins, zero draws and four defeats in the Premier League this season. Wolves put one win, zero draws and four defeats on the board in the Premier League.
