Manchester City - Luton Town predictions

Top bookmakers online have made Manchester City overwhelming favourites in this match and judging by the available odds it’s hard to see past a comprehensive home win here.

If betting odds are anything to go on – and they are - Luton Town will likely get overrun by their opponents with little hope of winning. Considering how one-sided this matchup is, they may want to cut their losses and focus their energy elsewhere.

Top online bookmakers priced Manchester City winning their most recent Premier League bout at 10.00, which made them the hard favourites. The game predictable ended in a 2:4 away win, though it’s worth noting the two teams were tied at half-time.

Luton Town must be feeling confident after the performance they gave the fans at Etihad Stadium during the second half of the last round’s match. Despite the very difficult matchup against AFC Bournemouth and mediocre first half, they nabbed a narrow 2:1 home win in the end.

The hosts have been careful not to let their goalscoring stats slip. They’ve scored more than 5 times during the last 3 matches, indicating consistent offensive results.

Luton Town can’t really boast a great record when it comes to playing as visitors. They conceded upwards of 5 goals in their most recent 3 away games. Considering they’re heading into another away game, that’s cause for concern.

With a string of successes over Luton Town spread across the season, the hosts can feel confident heading into round 33. Their victories were spread over several competitions, but it’s clear that their form is stronger.

The visitors’ status as underdogs is further made worse by the exceptionally high number of injuries going into this match. Tom Lockyer, Amari Bell, Daniel Potts, Gabriel Osho, Chiedozie Ogbene, Mads Juel Andersen, Jacob Brown, Albert Sambi Lokonga will all be unable to play at Etihad Stadium, so think twice before putting down any bets.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.27 odds offered at 888Sport.
