Liverpool vs Luton Town Prediction 21.02.2024

• Competition: England &— Premier League
• Date: Wednesday, 21st, February 2024
• Kickoff: 19:30 UK / 20.30 CET
• Venue: Anfield (Liverpool)

Liverpool, intent on maintaining their leading position in the Premier League, are set to face Luton Town, who are at risk of relegation, at Anfield for a midweek game.

Liverpool has managed to break its negative streak at Brentford Community Stadium with a convincing 4-1 victory on their recent Saturday visit, turning their past troubles at this venue into a positive experience. With Manchester City only managing a 1-1 draw against Chelsea, this win has enabled Liverpool to extend their lead over City to four points, even though they have played an extra game. The Reds now have a firm hold on their title prospects, and they also have a two-point lead over second-placed Arsenal, having played the same number of matches.

As Luton prepares for their journey to Merseyside’s red half, they find themselves in a somber mood after a hard-fought but ultimately futile battle, losing 1-2 to Manchester United. This marks their third straight match without a win. The consecutive defeats have reversed all progress made by Rob Edwards’ team during January, threatening their current 17th place standing. They are only one point ahead of Everton, who could potentially bump them further down the league table if they secure a victory against Crystal Palace.

Liverpool vs Luton Town Betting Tips: AH1 (-1.5)

Jurgen Klopp’s team is keen on exacting a severe revenge following their narrow escape with a 1-1 draw against Luton in a previous match at Kenilworth Road earlier in the season, especially as they aim to secure their top spot in the Premier League table. Despite a disappointing 1-3 loss to Arsenal, Liverpool’s ambitions were not dampened; instead, they were bolstered, as evidenced by two major victories in their subsequent Premier League games, where they emerged as 3-1 and 4-1 victors against Burnley and Brentford respectively during their last outings.

The Reds should feel confident about securing maximum points in the upcoming midweek match, given their impressive record at Anfield this season. They have won 17 of their 19 home games, with 15 of those victories being by a two-goal margin. Despite the Hatters performing well in their last five away games, including an eight-goal draw against Newcastle, it’s unlikely they’ll be able to disrupt Klopp’s high-flying team, especially considering their poor record when visiting Meryeside. Even with several players out, Liverpool still has enough attacking power to comfortably defeat relegation-threatened Luton.
