Brentford set to boost promotion hopes at Luton
1674

On Tuesday night, struggling Luton Town host Brentford at Kenilworth Road, in a game that could prove pivotal to both teams’ objectives in the Championship this season.

The home side are currently bottom of the table but are still very much in the fight for survival in the Championship. The Hatters are six points from safety but have won two of their last three league outings. A 3-1 defeat at Charlton last time out ended a promising two-game winning run in the second tier for the home side.

The fact that Luton have won three of their last 14 Championship matches explains the Hatters current position in the table.

The home sides recent Championship matches have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five outings in the second tier.

Luton’s recent home record has been highly inconsistent, as the Hatters have won just twice in their last six league games on home soil in the Championship. Their recent leagues at Kenilworth Road have been relatively high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in eight of their last 11 games.

Brentford are currently fourth place in the Championship, six points outside the automatic promotion spots.

The Bees are unbeaten in five league matches, but their last three Championship matches have finished in draws. However, on the other hand, they won just twice in their last seven league outings.

Brentford have a mixed away record of late in the second tier of late. The Bees are unbeaten in four league matches on their travels. However, they have won just two of their last eight matches on the road. Their recent Championship games away from home have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their last eight matches.

Forebet predicts that Brentford will record a victory in a low-scoring game to aide their promotion hopes while denting Luton’s chances of survival.
