👥 Head to head
If we look at their past head to head meetings dating back to 27/01/2009, neither club has come out on top overall with Bournemouth winning 2 of those games, Luton Town 2 and 2 being drawn after 90 minutes of play.
A combined sum of 15 goals were produced between them during those clashes, with 9 for The Cherries and 6 for The Hatters. That is an average goals per game value of 2.5.
📰 Team News: Bournemouth
Max Aarons (Hamstring injury), Ryan Fredericks (Calf injury) and Tyler Adams (Hamstring injury) aren’t available for Bournemouth gaffer Andoni Iraola.
It’s our opinion that The Cherries could use a 4-2-3-1 formation for this game with Neto, Adam Smith, Chris Mepham, Illia Zabarnyi, Milos Kerkez, Ryan Christie, Lewis Cook, Dango Ouattara, Justin Kluivert, Marcus Tavernier and Dominic Solanke.
🗞️ Team News: Luton Town
Due to a mostly healthy squad, there’s only the sole fitness issue for the Luton Town manager Rob Edwards to be concerned about. Tom Lockyer (heart problems) misses out for this game.
We are inclined to think that The Hatters could decide to begin the game with a 3-4-2-1 formation using Thomas Kaminski, Daiki Hashioka, Teden Mengi, Reece Burke, Issa Kabore, Alfie Doughty, Jordan Clark, Ross Barkley, Chiedozie Ogbene, Tahith Chong and Carlton Morris.
✨ Prediction _ Over 2.5 goals
It’s looking like Luton Town will have a difficult task to score against a Bournemouth side who look likely to win well here.
We predict a very comfortable 3-0 winning scoreline for Bournemouth at the end of the 90 minutes.
