Luton v Liverpool predictions

Liverpool's last league visit to Kenilworth Road in August 1991 ended 0-0 but Luton's defence may struggle to keep the rampant Reds quiet in Sunday's Premier League clash.

Last season's Championship playoff winners were hot favourites in the ante-post relegation betting but they have been more competitive than many expected in the early months of the 2023-24 season.

Luton have picked up five points from ten games, winning 2-1 at Everton and drawing with Wolves and Nottingham Forest, and their home defeats to West Ham, Burnley and Tottenham were all by one-goal margins.

Spurs, however, were reduced to ten men just before half-time and the Hatters have suffered heavier losses away to Brighton (4-1), Chelsea (3-0) and, last weekend, Aston Villa (3-1).

Liverpool, with 23 points and 23 goals from their first ten league fixtures of the campaign, are long odds-on to claim their eighth win and splitting stakes between a 3-1 and 4-1 correct score may be the best way to support the Reds.

Clean sheets have been a rarity for Jurgen Klopp's side away from home but their forwards should be too sharp for a depleted Luton defence and the midfield battle may also be one-sided.

Liverpool's summer overhaul of their midfield is paying dividends with Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai and, more recently, Ryan Gravenberch impressing in their first seasons at Anfield.

Curtis Jones, Harvey Elliott and Wataru Endo provide depth in that department, even with Thiago Alcantara and Stefan Bajcetic injured, and Luton are likely to be outclassed in the centre of the park.

Liverpool's only defeat in their last 21 league matches was the controversial 2-1 loss at Tottenham, where they had an early goal incorrectly ruled out for offside and had two players sent off before Joel Matip's decisive 96th-minute own goal.

Six of their seven wins this season have been by at least a two-goal margin and the exception was a remarkable 2-1 win at Newcastle, where Virgil van Dijk was sent off in the 28th minute and Darwin Nunez scored two late goals.

Top scorer Mohamed Salah has scored five times in his last three games and poses a major threat to the Luton defence and Liverpool have already racked up three 3-1 wins in the league this term.

Both teams have scored in five of Luton's last six games and they carry a decent goal threat through strikers Carlton Morris, Elijah Adebayo and Chiedozie Ogbene.

Since the league stalemate in 1991-92, Liverpool have scored 11 goals in three FA Cup ties against Luton, including a 5-3 win at Kenilworth Road in January 2006, and their forwards should cause plenty of problems for the Hatters.
