Strugglers Luton Town and Sheffield United do battle in potentially vital clash
2100

On Saturday afternoon, two of the Premier League’s strugglers go head-to-head at Kenilworth Road as Luton Town hosts Sheffield United in a potentially vital clash in the fight for survival.

Luton building up positive momentum

Rob Edwards’ team have hit form of late, as a thrilling 3-3 draw at Newcastle last time out means that the Hatters are now unbeaten in their previous five games in all competitions, including their last three top-flight outings.

However, on the flip side, Town has won just once in their previous four matches in the Premier League.

Luton certainly cannot be accused of not producing entertainment in their recent league matches, as four of their last five games in the Premier League have produced over 2.5 goals.

The home team’s form at Kenilworth Road in the English top flight has been inconsistent, as they have won two and lost three of their last five home games in the Premier League.

The blunt Blades look for some edge

Sheffield United continued their recent poor form last time out, as they suffered a 5-0 home hammering at the hands of Aston Villa.

The defeat means that Chris Wilder’s team is now winless in four games in all competitions, having suffered three straight competitive defeats.

Their biggest weakness lately has been in defence, as they have conceded at least two goals in all four of their recent winless games.

The Yorkshire outfit’s poor recent league form has left them stranded at the bottom of the Premier League table, ten points from the safety of 17th place, the position their opponents occupy.

The Blades have failed to win any of their 11 away games this season in the Premier League, having picked up just two draws and suffered nine defeats.

What does Forebet predict?

Forebet predicts that Luton’s recent improvement will continue in this game, with the Hatters claiming a victory in a relatively high-scoring encounter.
