  • Kickoff: 15:00 UK/16.00 CEST
  • Venue: Kenilworth Road (Luton)

Kenilworth Road is the battleground as Luton, freshly promoted, endeavors to notch their first points of the season against Wolverhampton in the sixth Premier League fixture this Saturday.

After a lengthy absence, precisely 32 years, Luton has granted themselves the opportunity to compete with the top clubs on the island this season by defeating Coventry in the Championship play-off final in late May. However, given the strong competition in the Premier League and their lack of necessary quality, the Hatters are understandably struggling, with very little chance of survival. Thus far, Luton has failed to collect any points in four matches, firmly placing Rob Edwards' team at the league's basement.

As for Wolverhampton, a club that has mostly lingered in the middle of the Premier League table over the past three seasons, somewhere between 10th and 13th place, they now face the mystery of how their fate will unfold this season. The club underwent a turbulent summer, losing key players such as Ruben Neves and Matheus Nunes, along with coach Julen Lopetegui. Under the guidance of Gary O'Neil, the Wolves have struggled to establish a right rhythm, picking up just three of a possible 15 points from the first five rounds, which leaves them in a paltry 16th position in the Premier League table.

Luton Town vs Wolverhampton Wanderers Betting Tips : 1X (Double chance)

As previously noted, Luton, newly promoted to the Premier League, is still on the hunt for their first points. While many, including the 1988 EFL Cup winners themselves, were well aware before the season started that a fierce and arduous battle for survival awaited them, they hold onto the positive hope that this Saturday might be the occasion to finally bring smiles to their supporters' faces, as they host the Wolves, who are struggling and don't look any better than them.

Indeed, Wolverhampton has managed to snatch just one triumph from their first five top-flight fixtures this season, enduring four defeats and conceding a whopping 11 goals in the process. Wolverhampton's painstakingly achieved 1-0 win against Everton in the third round of the ongoing campaign marked only the second time the orange and black team had tasted success in this year 2023, making it abundantly clear that away games are their weakest link. With both teams currently out of form, picking a favorite is a tricky proposition, but the Hatters, armed with home advantage, should finally provide serious resistance and take at least a point.

Luton Town team news

Luton's head coach, Rob Edwards, continues to cope without the services of defensive duo Gabriel Osho (Knee injury) and Dan Potts (Ankle), as well as Jordan Clark (Ankle), while Tom Lockyer returned to the team last week and played the full 90 minutes, following minor quadriceps issues.

Despite the loss to Fulham, coach Rob Edwards maintains a positive outlook on his team's performance, intending to stick with the same XI as last week. Carlton Morris, who was the third-highest scorer in the Championship last season, will once again play a key role in the attack with the aim of bringing the first points to his team.

Wolverhampton Wanderers team news

Although Rayan Ait-Nouri requested a substitution in the 66th minute during last week's 1-3 loss to Liverpool, the Algerian is likely to be fit for Saturday's match. There is no cause for concern as it is simply muscle fatigue, not an injury.

Joe Hodge, the captain of the Republic of Ireland U21 team, sustained a tendon injury during their remarkable 5-0 win in the Carabao Cup against Blackpool in late August. Thankfully, the injury isn't major, suggesting a swift return to the field.
