Luton Town v Man United Preview

Luton Town’s Form

Luton Town can consider themselves to be proud of their season so far, plenty predicted them to be rock bottom of the league and without hope of safety. However, with 15 games remaining, they’re currently 17th and have a fighting chance of keeping themselves afloat in the Premier League and they won’t be resting on their laurels anytime soon.

However, their 1-3 defeat against Sheffield United last weekend was the biggest blow to their survival hopes so far this season. The Hatters can consider themselves unlucky though being extremely effective with their 29% of possession having 20 shots and an XG of 1.76 to Sheffield United’s 7 shots and XG of 1.98

Luton have proved themselves to be more than a match for the best in the league this season, especially at home and know a win could see them rise to 16th.

Man United’s Form

Man United look to finally be building up a head of steam under ten Hag in 2024 and while the performances aren’t always there they’re beginning to show the grit and resilience of a side which at the very least is fighting off the same hymn sheet. Their 2024 record is 5 victories 2 draws and 0 zero defeats in all competitions this year and another victory would be huge for their season with some crucial fixtures on the way.

Last weekend it was another late McTominay winner which landed United a 1-2 victory against closest rivals in the table Aston Villa in what could prove to be a crucial result come the end of the season. The XG gods didn’t do Villa a favour though with their 23 shots accumulating an XG of 2.65 to United’s 17 shots accumulating an XG of 2.45, the home side could feel more than a little hard done by with the result.

Man United could get the gap to 2 points off Villa in 5th and 3 points to Tottenham in 4th if results go their way at the weekend. Could the tide be starting to turn for ten Hag or is another disaster on the way?

Key Players To Watch

Chiedozie Ogbene – Luton Town

The Irish Sensation had to bide his time at the beginning of the season only playing 54 minutes in Luton’s opening four league games. However, since then he has become a regular fixture in the side and is growing into every game and has already shown tremendous versatility playing across six positions.

It’s his pace and dribbling which are his biggest assets with him clocking one of the fastest sprints this season at 36.93 kph. His 5.96 Progressive Carries Per 90 is in the 94th percentile also. He will give the United full-backs a tough time no matter who it is come Sunday.

Rasmus Hojlund – Man United

The Manchester United striker has slowly gone about his business this season and already has an 11 goal and 2 assist total from his first 29 games at the club, made all the more impressive from the lack of services he has received from United’s wingers often having to create chances for himself.

Despite that, he is in the middle of a hot streak with 4 goals and 2 assists in his last 4 games. He could prove pivotal at the weekend again.

Luton Town v Man United Prediction & Best Bet

Prediction: Luton Town 0-3 Man United

Luton Town come into this game with little to lose and everything to gain in what is essentially a free hit for 3 points which could be crucial to their survival hopes.

Man United, while far from their “vintage” best these last few weeks have ground out results even when their performances weren’t always there especially with their attack coming alive in recent games.

I think United will be more than a goal to the good come Sunday, even with the disadvantage of being away from home.

Best Bet: Manchester United -1 @ 2/1
