Luton Town’s fight to remain in the Premier League continues this weekend when they travel to the London Stadium. However, David Moyes will be looking to end his stay at West Ham by claiming a final home success in East London.
Premier League Preview
The pressure will be increased on the shoulders of Luton Town this weekend, as the Hatters must claim victory to stand any chance of maintaining their top-flight status this term. They currently sit three points adrift from safety following their 1-1 draw with Everton last weekend, but their inferior goal difference means that they must finish at least one point above Nottingham Forest.
The David Moyes era at West Ham will come to an end this season, as the Scot was announced to be departing his position after the final two rounds of matches. It has been a successful period in the club’s history, which included a memorable success in the Europa Conference League last term. The Hammers could yet finish the season in the top eight with victories in their final two matches under Moyes.
West Ham boast an excellent record against promoted teams in the Premier League after going ten without defeat since a 1-0 loss against Nottingham Forest last season. The Hammers have also won six of their seven matches against promoted sides in the Premier League.
However, their recent form would be a massive concern ahead of this weekend. The Hammers have lost three of their last four, and they have conceded ten goals across their last two defeats. Their most recent loss was suffered on the road against Chelsea, but they haven’t conceded 5+ goals in four matches in a single season since the 1965-66 campaign.
West Ham vs Luton Head to Head
West Ham landed a 2-1 victory at Kenilworth Road earlier this season, meaning that they are chasing a first league double over the Hatters since 1983-84. Meanwhile, Luton have failed to win in their last five away matches against the Hammers in the league, with their last top-flight visit ending in a 0-0 draw in 1991.
West Ham vs Luton Prediction
West Ham’s recent form could be the key consideration this weekend. Therefore, we will be happy to take a chance on the visitors taking a point from this visit to the London Stadium to keep their slim hopes of survival alive.
