Luton Town Preview – Will the Hatters secure another invaluable three points?
Since coming back to the club, Nathan Jones had done a remarkable job with Luton Town. He kept them up on the final day of the 2019-20 season before guiding the Hatters to a 12th-place finish last term.
Before a ball was kicked last summer, Luton were among the favourites for relegation this season. However, to say they have proved their doubters wrong would be a huge understatement. Luton are riding high in third after amassing an outstanding 63 points.
Luton have won 18, lost 11 and drawn nine of 38 Championship matches. Since losing to Queens Park Rangers, Town have hit back with wins over Preston North End (4-0) and Hull City (3-1). Can they make it three in a row this Saturday?
Millwall Preview – Can the Lions bounce back from defeat?
Gary Rowett’s Millwall have been on an incredible run over the past couple of months or so, firing their way back into play-off contention. Since losing at Fulham in early February, the Lions have gone on to win six of their following nine.
After putting together a superb eight-game unbeaten run (six wins, two draws), Millwall fell to a rare defeat last time out. Rowett’s men were not their usual selves against Stoke City, crashing to a 2-0 loss at the bet365 Stadium.

Millwall will be desperate to strike back after the Stoke reverse, but getting anything from in-form Luton at Kenilworth Road will be a tall order. The Hatters have been excellent of late, and we are backing Jones’ boys to secure all three points from this crucial home clash.
Luton have kept clean sheets in their last three league wins at Kenilworth Road. Take a punt on Town to win to nil again on Saturday at 5/2. There is also good value in 13/5 for the hosts to be winning at half time and full time.
