Luton will be in front of their home fans on Saturday, but a look at the lines shows they may need home pitch advantage. They will finish 2023 at home when they host Chelsea at Kenilworth Road at 7:30 a.m. ET. Luton’s last five meetings have been decided by just one goal, so don’t be surprised if it’s a close one.
Luton and Sheffield had a combined 10 shots on goal on Tuesday, which explains their impressive total of five goals. Luton certainly had a miserable game but managed to escape with a 3-2 win over Sheffield. Luton gained momentum with Jack Robinson scoring an own goal in the 77th minute.
Meanwhile, Chelsea faced Crystal Palace for the first time this season, and Chelsea emerged victorious. They avoided Crystal Palace 2-1. Chelsea’s last goal was scored from a penalty spot by Noni Madueke in the 89th minute.
With this victory, Luton improved to 11th place with four wins and three losses, making it their third straight road win. This rough patch could be attributed to the team’s lackluster offensive performance throughout that stretch, as they averaged just 0.3 goals per game. As for Chelsea, the win improved their record to 7 wins, 4 losses, and 8 draws.
Luton suffered a 3-0 defeat to Chelsea in their last meeting in August. Will Luton have better luck at his home rather than on the road?
