Luton Town - Watford betting tips and odds

With bookies pricing a home win at 2.15, it’s clear the match may yet go either way. The hosts have a distinct advantage, of course, but both a draw and an away win are quite possible outcomes.

The away team’s chances of winning this Saturday are dubious at best. They are the clear underdogs in a matchup with Luton Town, and the fact that they’re the visiting team isn’t making things any easier.

Luton Town held the line against Sunderland in the last round, though the end result was a 1:1 draw. Still, this can be considered a mild success given the difficult match-up and home-field disadvantage.

Watford are coming off from an underwhelming 1:1 draw against Wigan Athletic in the last round of the Championship. Their lead from the first half came for nothing as they failed to preserve it in the end.

Considering Luton Town’s last two home games, this match might be a good chance to go for an Under 2.5 or even Under 1.5 Goals bet. Both of those matches ended with either one goal or none.

Away matches for Watford are often a good chance to go for something like an Under 5 Goals bet. Their previous two away games both ended up confirming it – none of them contained more than a single goal in total.

With a loss to The Hornets on the record, the home team’s status of clear favourites is brought into question. They lost a Championship match earlier in the season, which came as a surprise to bookies and punters alike.

This Saturday, both teams will have a full roster available to them, thanks to the absence of injuries or suspensions.

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 1.6.
