The Premier League returns this weekend with a full slate of fixtures as we prepare to enter the month of March. There’s a lot of excitement and tension in the air at both ends of the table and with so much on the line, there are plenty of reasons to feel hyped about what’s ahead. Today, we’ll be taking a look at what should be an intriguing clash between Luton Town and Aston Villa.
Luton Form GuideLuton Town fans are on cloud nine right now as they continue to enjoy life in the Premier League. When you put that alongside their success in the FA Cup, we’d say this is shaping up to be a pretty fun season for the Hatters. The priority, of course, is staying in the top flight, and we’d say they are looking good in that quest as we head into the second half of the season.
Luton, as they do most of the time, put up a really good fight last week. They traded blows with Liverpool and, ultimately, fell short in a 4-1 defeat, but they have a lot to feel optimistic about between now and May.
Aston Villa Form GuideAston Villa fans are on cloud nine right now. They’re looking good in the Conference League, they are in the top four mix in the Premier League, and their home form is out of this world. The boys from the second city are absolutely flying under Unai Emery and if they can carry this momentum forward, there are a lot of options for the club - and they’re all pretty exciting.
Aston Villa were forced to dig deep at home to Nottingham Forest as Nuno’s men really came at them in the second city. It was an intense Midlands battle and it was really enjoyable to watch, but in the end, Emery’s soldiers got the job done in a 4-2 victory.
Match PredictionLuton playing at Kenilworth Road = entertainment. Villa, of course, are also going to bring the heat as they typically do, and we’re intrigued to see how their two styles mesh together. In terms of an official prediction, we’re going to somewhat play it safe and say over 2.5 goals will be scored.
