Luton vs Sheffield Utd Match Preview

Luton is ranked at 19th place with 5 points and comes not in their best form after a single win two draws and two losses over the last five matches. It was quite a poor start to the new season as they remained winless for four consecutive games. Finally, in the most recent duel against Swansea, they got their first victory. During the previous season they reached the promotion playoffs so the team has got quite some quality players.

In six official games played until now in the domestic league and EFL Cup they have scored five goals averaging almost a goal per game. Adebayo who was their best player last season has failed to score in these games but soon he should find his best form. At home, Luton has lost just one of the last five h2h encounters against Sheffield Utd.

Sheffield Utd, on the other hand, is ranked at 1st place and has a good start to the new season. They have collected three wins a draw and a loss so far. Last year they also reached the promotion playoffs but fell against stronger Nottingham Forest in the semifinals.

With 9 goals scored until now, they have the best offensive side in the league averaging almost two goals per game while managing to find the back of the net in four encounters. It was only in the loss against Watford they failed to score but still, the performance was very good. Ndiaye with 3 goals and Berge with 2 goals and 1 assist have been on fire and it seems this duo is going to be crucial for their football this season.

In conclusion, I think both teams can score at least a goal here. Luton has been a team that likes to play offensive football and I think playing at home will motivate them to dare more upfront. Sheffield Utd has also shown great quality in attack and I fancy them to be a tough rival here. They have what it takes to punish at least once their rivals.
