The Premier League returns for another weekend full of stacked top flight action as we gear up for the final few months of the campaign. It’s pretty clear at this point what everyone is aiming for from top to bottom, but there are still plenty of twists and turns awaiting us on that journey. Today, we’ll be taking a look at what should be a fun encounter between Crystal Palace and Luton Town.
Crystal Palace Form GuideA change in management can often inspire a turnaround on the pitch and while Roy Hodgson’s presence wasn’t the only ongoing issue at the club, his exit will certainly give fans cause for hope and optimism. Now, with Oliver Glasner at the helm, there could be an exciting new direction for this famous club - and hopefully for them, far less of a worry regarding the threat of relegation.
Palace did well to take the lead on the road against Tottenham but in the final 15 minutes, they just fell apart. Spurs scored through Werner, Romero and Son to ensure they were the ones that left North London with a 3-1 win.
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 are going to keep fighting until the bitter end, and that was on full display against Aston Villa. After going 2-0 down in the first half, they battled their way back to 2-2, only losing to an 89th minute goal courtesy of Lucas Digne.
Match PredictionCrystal Palace have a new direction, whereas Luton are in desperate need of a big result. Those two factors alone should ensure this adds up to be a really fun clash, and in our view, the most likely outcome of the game is over 2.5 goals scored.
