Form
Spurs’ hopes of a top-four finish were dealt a blow last time out as Ange Postecoglu’s side suffered a heavy 3-0 loss away at London rivals, Fulham. However, at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Spurs have won six of their past seven matches.
Tottenham Hotspur go into this weekend with 53 points from 28 matches. Spurs are three points adrift of fourth placed Aston Villa with one game in hand whilst Manchester United are sixth with 47 points from their 28 matches.
Nottingham Forest’s four-point deduction saw Luton Town climb out of the bottom three earlier this month yet on the pitch The Hatters are now winless in eight league games. Before the international break Luton Town rescued a late draw at home to Nottingham Forest. Their last away fixture in the Premier League saw them throw away a three-goal half-time lead to lose 4-3 at AFC Bournemouth.
Tottenham Hotspur v Luton Town: Head-to-Head
The reverse fixture at Kenilworth Road last October was the only meeting between these sides in the past 30 years. Despite playing 45 minutes with ten men, Spurs ran out 1-0 winners thanks to a second-half goal from defender, Micky van de Ven. Luton Town’s last win over Tottenham Hotspur came back in November 1987.
Betting Tips
If you can forgive Spurs’ blip at Fulham last time out then you have to fancy them to earn all three points on Saturday. The hosts look great value for the win at 1/5. Spurs’ last eleven Premier League games have all produced over 2.5 match goals whilst both teams have scored in Luton Town’s last nine matches in all competitions. We are therefore anticipating goals on Saturday. Both teams to score and over 2.5 match goals are both attractive propositions at 8/13 and 1/4 respectively.
Son Heung-min remains the main danger for the hosts as the Spurs captain hopes to add to the 14 Premier League goals he’s scored already this season. Son has scored in two of Spurs’ last three league games and also opened the scoring in South Korea’s World Cup qualifier against Thailand last week. Here are some Son Heung-min-related goal scoring markets you should consider this weekend.
Son Heung-min to score | Odds |
---|---|
To score at any time | 8/11 |
First goalscorer | 10/3 |
Last goalscorer | 10/3 |
To score two or more | 3/1 |
To score a hat-trick | 12/1 |
To score or assist | 1/3 |
As top scorer, Elijah Adebayo remains absent and faces the prospect of missing the rest of the season through injury, Carlton Morris has stepped up to the plate for The Hatters in recent weeks. Morris has captained Luton Town in the absence of skipper, Tom Lockyer and has netted eight times in the Premier League already this season. Luton Town’s last six goals have been scored by six different players but Morris remains the most likely to score for the visitors on Saturday. You can back Morris to score at any time at 14/5.
