Huddersfield Town Preview – Will the Terriers make home advantage count?
Huddersfield Town went on a remarkable unbeaten run from December to March, turning themselves into genuine promotion contenders. During the spell, the Terriers claimed nine wins and drew eight times before finally succumbing to Millwall on 16th March.
After the loss at The Den, Huddersfield were then beaten 3-0 at home by Bournemouth. However, they bounced back with a crucial three points in their last one, edging past Hull City. Harry Toffolo’s goal 11 minutes from time gave Town a 1-0 win at the MKM Stadium.
Huddersfield will be desperate to put another winning run together to make sure of a play-off place. Three points on Monday will keep them in third ahead of another crunch clash against Queens Park Rangers on Friday night.
Luton Town Preview – Can the Hatters leapfrog Town?
Luton Town have had a sensational season up until now. The Hatters have surprised most with their stunning form in 2022, and Nathan Jones’ boys have earned the right to be in the promotion picture with just a handful of games left.
Since a gut-wrenching home loss to QPR last month, Luton have responded expertly well by going four games unbeaten. After wins over Preston North End and Hull City, Jones’ boys have drawn with Millwall and Peterborough United in their last two.

Huddersfield Town vs Luton Town Betting Advice
These two are hard to split in the league table, with Huddersfield sitting just one place and one point above Luton right now. There was also nothing to split the duo when they met in the reverse Championship fixture at Kenilworth Road back in October, as the game ended in a goalless draw.
In fact, each of the last three Huddersfield vs Luton fixtures have ended all square. Luton are undefeated in five (three draws, two wins).
Key Facts – Huddersfield Town vs Luton Town Betting Tip

- Luton are unbeaten in four (two wins, two draws)
- The Terriers have not beaten the Hatters since 2008
As we touched on, these two played out a 0-0 draw in the reverse matchup a few months back, and we can see the duo cancelling each other out again on Monday. Our money is going on the draw at 11/5.
With both teams desperate not to give anything away, it could be a night for the defences. With that in mind, back this to be 0-0 at the break at the decent price of 13/8.
