Luton Town - Burnley: Form Analysis
Luton Town will be looking to rise from an unconvincing run in the last few matches. They haven't won any of the last three games, a period in which their promotion hopes have taken a slight dent. Ahead of this game, they are nine points below the automatic promotion slot, but they are six points above seventh. So in a worst case scenario they can contest through the playoff, hoping to do better after reaching the same heights last season. Luton are coming from two straight draws in the Championship but remain unbeaten in five in the league. Their scoring run has been encouraging, the team netting in each of the last 11 league matches. In the last five league matches, they have three clean sheets while they’ve scored more than a goal in just one of the last five league games. Luton have only conceded two goals in the last five league matches, and they have one loss in 11 home games in the league.
Burnley will find Luton a tough opponent, the two having drawn 1-1 in the first meeting, and Burnley also coming into this game on the back of a 1-1 draw with Watford. The league leaders needed a late equalizer in the Watford game to avoid another defeat in the Championship. They are 15 points clear of the third placed team so automatic promotion remains a reality for Vincent Kompany’s side. Burnley have three clean sheets in the last five matches and scored two or more goals in three of those five matches. They carry into this game a run of 11 matches unbeaten in the Championship, 10 of them being wins. With four straight away wins in the Championship, three of them with clean sheets, Burnley have reason to be confident going into this game. The league leaders have lost just four times in the last 14 away matches in the Championship this season.

Luton Town & Burnley Squad Analysis
Burnley will go into this game a bit light in defence. Jordan Beyer was withdrawn in the first half of the draw with Watford and this comes when Taylor Harwood-Bellis is still a few weeks off full fitness. Luton have injury issues of their own too, with Luke Freeman, Cody Drameh and Sonny Bradley all ruled out of this game.
