After suffering a spectacular loss at Bournemouth, Luton is seeking to regain their form in their upcoming EPL relegation six-pointer match against Nottingham Forest this Saturday.
Luton vs Nottingham Forest Betting Tips: BTTS / Over 2.5 Goals
After suffering one of the greatest comebacks in EPL history on Wednesday, Luton is returning to Kenilworth Road.
Luton was leading with three goals at the halftime of their away game at Bournemouth, but a disastrous defeat was sealed when they conceded four goals in the second half. The victory appeared to be a certainty, but the loss kept them in the relegation zone. A win could have elevated them above their opponents this weekend.
This season, Luton has regularly produced high-scoring results. In each of their last four home games at Kenilworth Road, both teams scored (BTTS) and over 2.5 goals were netted. Extending the timeframe slightly, this was also the case in eight of their last 11 home games.
Additionally, Luton’s home matches this season have seen an average of 3.47 goals, with at least four goals scored in six of their last ten home games.
Forest, who are visiting Kenilworth Road, are only three points ahead of the home team. Nuno Espírito Santo’s squad has experienced a losing streak in their last four games and has only managed to secure a single victory in their last 11 EPL away games. On the road, Forest’s last eight away EPL matches have seen both teams score (BTTS) and an average of 3.6 goals have been scored in their last five away games.
These sides played out an entertaining 2:2 draw when they met in Nottingham earlier this year and a similar outcome could be on the cards. Neither side look capable of a clean sheet so BTTS has to be the best bet for Saturday´s crucial Premier League contest.
