Predictions and betting advice for the Luton vs Manchester City football match on 10/12/2023.

Posted on by Matthew Reynolds

Our forecast for this Premier League game is:

Luton

Luton

Man City

Man City

Luton will face a tough opponent, Man City, at Kenilworth Road in a classic underdog vs powerhouse showdown. Despite losses to both Luton (1-3) and Arsenal (3-4) in their last two league matches, the Hatters have shown strong performances that do not reflect their results. However, they will face a daunting challenge in Sunday’s match against the defending champions as they battle to avoid relegation. On a positive note, defender Tom Lockyer has recovered from his injury and will be available for the home team.

On the contrary, Pep Guardiola’s team experienced a decrease in performance, as they were unable to secure a victory in their last four league matches. Nevertheless, an away win is plausible for this upcoming match as both Rodri and Jack Grealish have returned from suspension. As usual, Erling Haaland will be a player to watch on the visiting team, having scored 14 goals in the Premier League this season. This will mark the first encounter between the two clubs since April 1999, when Man City won against Luton 2-0 in League One.

The game is scheduled for 10/12/2023 at 3:00 PM.

Prediction:
1-4
