Brentford’s performance in the Premier League over the previous two seasons has been pleasantly surprising, finishing 11th and 9th. Last year, they were almost able to make their first-ever appearance in Europe but fell short by just two points. This year, Brentford is holding their own, currently placed 11th with 16 points after 13 rounds. However, the general consensus is that the Bees have the potential to perform better. Given their upcoming schedule appears to be somewhat lighter, we expect them to go on a good run and improve their standing.
Last year, Luton Town had a monumental season, earning a spot in the Premier League via the Championship Playoffs. This year, however, they, along with Sheffield United and Burnley &— both of whom also participated in last year’s Championship &— are considered to be among the main contenders for relegation. Despite being in the safe zone at 17th place at present, Luton Town’s position is largely due to a ten-point deduction for Everton.
Brentford vs Luton Town pick: Brentford to win and cover the -1 AH spread
Brentford is heading into this game following consecutive defeats against Arsenal and Liverpool. However, it’s only fair to note that these losses were anticipated, and the Bees still put up a decent performance. Prior to these two defeats, they had a three-game winning run where they netted eight goals. Against Luton Town, who is a formidable opponent, they have a good chance to return to their winning form.
Luton Town eventually garnered three points in their latest game against Crystal Palace, following a six-game streak without a win. However, their performance was less than commendable, and realistically, they were undeserving of all three points. Luton’s performance on foreign soil has been dismal, with six losses out of eight games across all competitions, and a two or more goal difference in three of these losses.
Considering Brentford’s overall superior team and Luton’s abysmal away record, we think the Bees are likely to secure an easy victory at Brentford Community Stadium.
