Luton vs Brentford Prediction, Odds, and Betting Tips

🏆 Luton vs Brentford: Who Will Win?

Luton have become everyone's second favourite team this season because of the effort that they have put in with a really small squad. Back in August, everyone had them as dead certs to be relegated, but with five games remaining, they are still in with a very good shout of booking another season in the EPL. In their last game, they lost 5-1 to Manchester City, but this game will not end up defining their season.

Brentford have been punching above their weight ever since they got promoted to the EPL, but it is fair to say that this has been their trickiest season. It does not help that they were without their best striker for more than half of the campaign as Ivan Toney was banned for gambling offences. They beat Sheffield United last time out, which means that one more win should end up being enough to guide them to safety.

Luton Town give everyone a game at home, and some of the best teams in the league have struggled here as they refuse to lie down for anyone. I think Brentford will struggle as well due to their away form, so I am going to back this match to end in a draw. As for the scoreline, let's go for an entertaining 2-2.

💯 Luton vs Brentford Match Odds

When these two teams met at the Gtech Community Stadium on the 2nd of December, the Bees came away with all three points courtesy of a 3-1 win. Brentford dominated the proceedings, landing 27 shots on goal to Luton's seven. Across the whole 90 minutes, the Hatters had just the one shot on target, while Brentford had six. The first half was all square, but Neal Maupay gave the home team the lead shortly after halftime. Ben Mee doubled their lead in the 56th minute, but Jacob Brown pulled a goal back in the 76th minute. Shandon Baptise sealed the deal for Thomas Frank in the 81st minute.

Since this is a Premier League match, there will be plenty of football bettors across the UK who will decide to place a wager on it. As a result, you will not be short of betting markets and odds at established and new UK betting sites. Below you will find the odds that my five favourite bookies are offering for three popular markets in relation to this Luton vs Brentford match.

🏅 Luton vs Brentford: Match Winner Odds

Due to where both of these teams are in the Premier League table and the fact that Luton are hard to beat at home, you are probably expecting some pretty close odds for this match. You would be right to think so as the bookmakers have Brentford as the very slight favourites for this clash.

Those who want to bet on the winner of this game can make use of the match winner odds in the following table:

Team
Luton Town	2.98	2.98	3.10	3.15	3.15
Draw	3.55	3.55	3.60	3.75	3.75
Brentford	2.16	2.16	2.20	2.12	2.12

⚽ Luton vs Brentford: Both Teams To Score Odds

For most Premier League matches, the sports betting sites will have both teams to find the back of the net because this is not one of those leagues where goals are in short supply - there have been close to 1100 goals scored this season. Some matches will obviously have a lower XG, but this is not one of them. The bookmakers, just like me, think that there are goals in this match for both teams.

You can find out the BTTS odds in the table below if this is a market that you like to dabble in.

BTTS
Yes	1.45	1.45	1.45	1.45	1.50
No	2.55	2.55	2.55	2.43	2.50

🥅 Luton Town vs Brentford: Over/Under 2.5 Goals Odds

The bookmakers are certain that there will be over 2.5 goals in this game but under 3.5 goals. The odds for this market, alongside the odds for the both teams to score and match winner markets, inform us that they think a very probable outcome is for Brentford to come out on top with a 2-1 scoreline.

Have a gander at the over/under 2.5 goals odds if this market happens to be your cup of tea.

Over/Under 2.5 Goals
Over 2.5	1.53	1.53	1.58	1.50	1.52
Under 2.5	2.32	2.32	2.35	2.38	2.40

1️⃣Luton Town Update

If you had told Luton Town fans that their team would be in 18th place and one point adrift of safety with five games left to play, they probably would have taken that. After all, many thought that they have a chance of breaking the lowest points record in EPL history. They play some attractive football under Rob Edwards and never give up, but their main Achilles heel is the fact that they are conceding an average of 2.12 goals per game while scoring an average of 1.39 goals.

When it comes to form over their last ten matches, they are sitting at the bottom of the form table with one win, two draws, and seven losses. During this time, they have conceded 25 goals. If they can sure up their defence for the rest of the season, they might just sneak out of the bottom three. Below are their previous five EPL results:

Edwards has been hindered by an extensive injury list all season, and his current injury list is in double figures. You can see who will not be available to play in this big clash against Brentford in the following table:

2️⃣Brentford Update

Brentford are sitting in 15th place with 32 points from the 33 matches that they have played this season - eight wins, eight draws, and 17 losses. They have struggled for goals all season, which is one of the main reasons why they are not further away from the dreaded relegation battle. Their attacking players are all fit again, so they will be hoping that this sees them climb to safety sooner rather than later.

The Bees have found a little bit of form in recent weeks as they have lost just once in their previous five matches - one win, three draws, and one defeat. This run included solid points against Aston Villa, Brighton, and Manchester United. You can see their previous five EPL results below:

Frank's injury list is not as extensive as Edwards', but it is still longer than he would have hoped for at this stage in the season. You can see the Brentford absentees in the table below:
