Birmingham City - Luton Town betting tips and odds

With a difficult matchup ahead of them, Birmingham City will need to focus if they want to bring in another 3 points. They are not overwhelmingly outmatched by any means, but they are generally seen as the underdogs compared to Luton Town.

The visitors are not walking into an easy match by any means, but they should be able to come out on top. Winning this match will be a welcome boost to their rankings, though such an outcome is priced at 2.47.

The Blues’s previous Championship match did not go their way, but not even the most stubborn fans would have predicted a different result against a team as strong as Norwich City . They played as visitors, and the top online bookmakers priced an away win at 5.40. They never recovered from some early concessions, and the score was brought to a conclusive 3:1 result before the end.

Luton Town are coming off from a narrow home defeat against Burnley. Most bookmakers online anticipated the 0:1 result, but it should be mentioned that they went toe-to-toe with Burnley for the first 45 minutes.

Looking over the home team’s recent record, we can see a worrying trend. They’ve conceded more than 5 goals over the past 3 matches alone, indicating problems in their defensive lineup.

The previous two matches Luton Town played at home ended without much excitement. Neither featured more than a single goal.

These two teams met earlier this season and the final result was a draw. Luton Town are playing as the away team this time, which puts some doubt as to whether they’ll be able to pull ahead this time. According to the betting odds, though, they’re still the favourites.

Due to the absence of injuries or suspensions, both teams will have their complete lineups available for an exciting match.

And Under 2.5 Goals is the perfect wager for this fixture. A quick glance at these teams’ statistics will tell you all you need to know about their concession rates, which is why it’s a fairly safe bet, generally priced at around 1.61.
