- Competition: Premier League

- Venue: Kenilworth Road
Manchester City will be looking to keep their hopes of winning the Premier League for a fourth consecutive season alive when they travel this weekend to Kenilworth Road to face one of the new boys in Luton Town.
The hosts have not won much this season, but their performances at home have been good. Rob Edwards' side hosted league leaders Arsenal earlier in the week, looking to extend their unbeaten run at home to three games. The Hatters went home empty-handed but there were plenty of positives to take from that game as the Gunners needed a stoppage-time goal from Declan Rice to win the game.
Luton Town will be looking to build on that performance this weekend they host a Manchester City side who have their sights set on another title. After three consecutive league draws, the Citizens travelled to in-form Aston Villa last time out looking to get back to winning ways. City were always going to struggle without Rodri - who was suspended for that game - but losing was not what many expected. Pep's men have now dropped to fourth in the table and will need to respond on Sunday afternoon.
Luton Town vs Manchester City Betting Tips: City to win & Over 2.5 goals
Luton have caused problems for some big teams this season, but the return of Jack Grealish and Rodri after their suspensions is too much quality for the Hatters to handle. Rob Edwards' men also have one of the worst defences in this division this season. Luton have yet to keep a clean sheet in the league this season and conceded at least three goals in each of their last two games.
- Best Tip: City and over 2.5 goals
- Luton Town vs Manchester City prediction: 1-3

Luton Town team news
Luton Town didn’t suffer any fresh injuries in the defeat to Arsenal last weekend so it won’t be a surprise if head coach Rob Edwards maintains the side which was on the pitch from kickoff in that game.
Ross Barkley was exceptional in the middle of the park, scoring one of the Hatters’ goals and the former Chelsea man will keep his place in the starting eleven, while Chiedozie Ogbene is pushing for a start upfront.

Manchester City team news
Meanwhile, Jérémy Doku remains a doubt for Manchester City after the Belgian missed the defeat to Aston Villa last time out for lack of fitness.
Jack Grealish and Rodri are both expected to return to the starting eleven after serving their suspensions for accumulation of bookings, but Kevin De Bruyne and Zack Steffen are still out with injuries.
Erling Haaland is expected to keep his place in the final third, while Rico Lewis and Manuel Akanji could be demoted to the bench to provide places for Grealish and Rodri.
