Our Three Predictions For Luton Town vs West Bromwich Albion
- Prediction 1 – Both teams to score – 3/4
- Prediction 2 – West Bromwich Albion to score over 1.5 goals – 41/25
- Prediction 3 – Elijah Adebayo to score at any time – 357/100
First Prediction for Luton Town vs West Bromwich Albion – Both teams to score 3/4
Although Luton are struggling to adapt to life back in the Championship this season, in their last five games in all competitions they’ve only failed to score in one of them. Rob Edward’s side have proved they can score goals, netting 14 goals this season, but they have also leaked them defensively, conceding 20 in the Championship. Carlos Corberan’s baggies are the opposite, only conceding seven, but scoring 13. Both sides are firing on all cylinders, and it could make for a high-scoring affair at Kenilworth Road.
Second Prediction for Luton Town vs West Bromwich Albion – West Bromwich Albion to score over 1.5 goals – 41/25
Despite the Albion’s poor form both results-wise and in front of goal, as previously mentioned the Hatters are struggling defensively. This is something Corberan will know and will look to exploit to try and get West Brom back to winning ways after four draws and one defeat on the bounce. In addition, Luton have a very weakened back line due to injuries to key players such as Tenden Mengi and Reuell Walters and suspensions such as Alfie Doughty and Tom Holmes.
Third Prediction for Luton Town vs West Bromwich Albion – Elijah Adebayo to score at any time – 357/100
Adebayo took a while to get off the mark this season after his excellent form in the Premier League last season. It took the 26-year-old 10 games to score, but since he netted his opening goal against Sunderland the striker now has two in two. With Adebayo confident, he has the opportunity to make it three in three in the Championship.

Full Preview Of The Game: Last Results and Head-To-Head
Surprisingly, Luton have better recent form than West Brom, even though Luton are sat in the relegation zone. Winning against their local rivals Watford and a draw against Oxford United are the best results in their last five, with three losses further making up their last five matches. Despite being sat in 22nd, the Hatters are a mere point off safety and could jump as high as 14th depending on other results if they were to win on Friday night.
West Brom are clinging onto their play-off place, as four draws and one loss in their last five mean they are now winless in six matches in the Championship. A win would be monumental for the Baggies, and depending on the results around them could push them into an automatic spot. However, if they remain winless, four teams within one or two points could mathematically overtake Corberan’s side, potentially meaning West Brom could fall out of the play-off spots.
Since 2018, the Hatters and the Baggies have faced each other competitively seven times. Six of those seven matchups have come in the Championship, with one coming in the EFL Cup. Recent fixtures favour West Brom, with the club winning five of the seven games played. Luton have only won against West Brom once, and that result came in the form of a 2-0 win back in February 2022. A further fixture played ended in a draw between the two sides.
