Sunderland vs Luton: Top Free Betting Tips

After returning to their losing pattern, Sunderland plays the next fixture of the EFL Championship against in-form Luton Town on Saturday,  18 March. The Hatters have earned a three-match winning streak in the second division before this game.

Match Result Prediction: Luton to Win

Sunderland has faced four defeats in the last five outings, winning one against Norwich. The Black Cats have also lost the last two home attempts in a row. On the contrary, Luton Town continued to make an impact on the pitch as they are undefeated in the last five league outings while winning four of them. The Hatters also beat Sheffield United and Birmingham City successively in the recent visits. The latest H2Hs of these teams have ended with equal scores but we see Luton currently in the position to earn all three points in this game.

Both Teams to Score Prediction: Yes

Luton Town has been consistent on the defensive end and made successive clean sheets recently. However,  Sunderland has confidence in scoring against the likes of Sheffield United, Middlesbrough and Fulham at home in recent attempts. The hosts have also helped BTTS patterns in the last three H2Hs with Luton in a row. In opposition, the Hatters have not missed the target in the last five league outings. Hence, we can expect this game to feature goals from both ends of the field in this game.

Correct Score Prediction: 1-2 to Luton

Sunderland has succeeded to score only one goal per game in the last four home attempts. Luton Town has also been clipped to low-scoring totals in recent outings but they should be optimistic over the hosts’ poor defence. The Black Cats have conceded 11 goals in the last five league duels, allowing more than once in four of them. Given these numbers, we predict the Hatters to take a 1-2 lead at the end of this game.
