We’re deep into the final few months of the Premier League campaign and this is where business is really going to pick up. There’s a whole lot to play for at both ends of the table, and it’s clear to see that every single point matters between now and the end of May. Today, we’ll be taking a look at what should be a fascinating clash between Luton Town and Nottingham Forest.
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.
Last weekend, Luton went on the road to battle Crystal Palace - and for long spells of the game, they did well, despite being behind against the Londoners. In the end, though, they got what they deserved in the form of a well-earned point courtesy of a dramatic late equaliser to make it 1-1.
Nottingham Forest Form GuideThere’s a lot of uncertainty surrounding Nottingham Forest right now. While there’s excitement stemming from Nuno Espirito Santo’s start as manager, they also have a possible points deduction hanging over their head. The priority is going to be staying in the Premier League, and they certainly have the quality necessary to end up in 17th or higher this season.
Despite complaints surrounding VAR, Nuno still needs to answer for his Forest’s side inability to get a result against Brighton last Sunday. They fought hard but ultimately, they didn’t look great in front of goal, slipping to a 1-0 defeat on the south coast.
Match PredictionOne thing that we feel confident in saying is that both of these teams are going to really go for it, given that they know how much of a six-pointer this game is. We expect it to be quite a back and forth affair but in the end, our prediction is going to be over 2.5 goals scored.
