Our Three Predictions For Luton Town vs Plymouth Argyle

  • Prediction 1 – Lorent Tolaj To Score – 10/3
  • Prediction 2 – Over 2.5 Goals Scored – 77/100
  • Prediction 3 – Luton Town To Win – 40/85

First Prediction For Luton Town vs Plymouth Argyle – Lorent Tolaj To Score – 10/3

The Swiss forward has opened his Argyle account in strong fashion, with three goals in his last two games, and has a strong chance of adding to that tally in this game. He put the final nail in the coffin of Stockport County last weekend, adding to his brace against Cheltenham Town in the EFL Trophy, and the 23-year-old now sits on four for the season, having scored for Port Vale prior to his move to Home Park. Tolaj has been one of the strongest forwards in the third tier so far, sitting in the top 10% for both shots taken and on non-penalty xG. While there are other threats on the pitch like Caleb Watts and Lasse Nordas, Tolaj is the strongest bet to find the net in this fixture.

Second Prediction For Luton Town vs Plymouth Argyle – Over 2.5 Goals Scored – 77/100

While there has been a positive upturn in performances for Plymouth, it has still been a dreadful campaign on the whole. Tom Cleverley’s side are still top of the goals conceded list with 15 shed in seven matches and showed no sign of shutting out their opponents with Stockport County scoring two. The Pilgrims have kept just one clean sheet so far this season in the league, with a 1-0 home win at Blackpool. Luton have had a fairly decent start in front of goal with eight in six matches, but there have not been any standout goalscorers so far within their squad. With the strong attacking output that Luton and Plymouth both have, combined with Argyle’s shaky defence, there should be a few goals in this game.

Third Prediction For Luton Town vs Plymouth Argyle – Luton Town To Win – 40/85

Matt Bloomfield’s side have found their footing in a way their opponents are yet to and have kept themselves in touch with first-placed Cardiff City, despite losing to the Bluebirds earlier in the season. With a break for the Hatters due to the international break, Town will be well rested up against a Plymouth side that saw action over the weekend in their win over Stockport County. With new signings like Ali Al-Hamadi and Shayden Morris, who both joined on Deadline Day, able to get used to the tactics and demands of the former Wycombe Wanderers boss, they should be able to use these players to their advantage against a struggling defence. Argyle have lost all of their games on the road this season, which bodes well for a home victory.

Full Preview Of The Game: Last Results And Head-To-Head

Luton Town have had a full week of rest after they crossed the threshold to postpone their game against Blackpool due to international callups, meaning they have a game in hand on many of the teams around them heading into this game. Their last league contest ended in great success with a decisive 3-0 win over Burton Albion at the Pirelli, washing away the loss at the hands of current league leaders Cardiff City. They enter the weekend in seventh place and on 12 points, with four wins and two losses to their name so far this season. Those defeats came to teams above them in the Bluebirds as well as their away trip to Bradford City. With no action since Deadline Day, Matt Bloomfield could hand debuts to Ali Al-Hamadi following his loan from Ipswich Town as well as Aberdeen winger Shayden Morris.

Plymouth Argyle, however, are still looking to build some form after a rotten start to the season, characterised by woeful defensive performances. Heavy losses to Barnsley, Bolton Wanderers and Cardiff City have left Tom Cleverley’s side in the bottom places for the early stages, but after further transfer business, have begun to reverse the slide, with just one loss and three wins in their last five games across all competitions. Argyle won their last match, beating Stockport County in a 4-2 win over the weekend, highlighting the impact of Lorent Tolaj since his move from Port Vale. That game also marked the debut of Deadline Day signing Owen Dale, who came off of the bench in the win over the Edgeley Park side.

These two sides have faced each other in three different divisions since 2014, with their paths vaguely following each other as they ascended and descended the divisions. Last season saw these clashes as must win six-pointers as both teams faced battles for survival, and it was Argyle who succeeded with a win at home followed up by a draw in Feburary. Luton, however, have the slight edge in recent history, with four wins to Plymouth’s three with as many draws also played out.

Oliver Yates will be the referee for this game, marking his fifth appointment in League One this season and seventh overall. His matches have seen 26 yellow cards and three penalties awarded, with his most recent match seeing AFC Wimbledon‘s win over Barnsley in mid-August.
