Betting Tips
The final Premier League match of 2023 between Luton Town and Chelsea will occur on the field at Kenilworth Road on Saturday at midday. Just over a day before the Blues came back from behind to upset Crystal Palace 2-1, Rob Edwards’ team dominated Sheffield United 3-2 on Boxing Day.
Luton Town vs Chelsea
As Luton Town welcome Chelsea on Saturday, 2023, Kenilworth Road will be rocking for the last time in 2023. This Premier League matchday 20 will take place in Luton, Bedfordshire, with a lot riding on the outcome for both teams. Luton is currently in the relegation zone, with a point serving as their difference against Everton, who have played one extra game.
Luton Town has the chance to make it three wins in a row in the Premier League when Chelsea visit Kenilworth Road on Saturday. Rob Edwards’ men beat Sheffield United 3-2 in a relegation-zone thriller to claim three crucial points on Boxing Day.
The Hatters have improved their season in recent games with back-to-back victories. They also have fond memories of playing Chelsea, with their last home league game ending in a 2-0 victory, albeit back in 1991.
Chelsea is eager to cause trouble as they try to revive their top-four campaign. The Blues are currently 11 points behind fifth-place Tottenham, who still have a game to play. For the time being, Chelsea will want to continue winning and increase their prospects later in the season.
Given that the visitors have won seven and drawn four of their previous 11 league finals, there is cause for optimism based on their past performance. Given that they have dropped their last four straight away games, they would need to improve their away performance.
Verdict
Luton has breathed some life into their campaign with consecutive wins, showing that they are ready for the relegation battle. They could be dangerous in their current form, as Newcastle found out a couple of matchdays ago. The home ground will be buzzing as a tentative and inconsistent Chelsea visit.
While both Manchester City and Arsenal were given a genuine scare as they won by tight margins, Liverpool required a late goal to salvage a point on their travels. Chelsea’s prospects of earning three points are not good, especially considering that Mauricio Pochettino’s team has dropped its past four away games against Newcastle, Manchester United, Everton, and Wolves.
Despite significant financial investments made in the club, the Blues are struggling to finish in the middle of the table, which is unacceptable given the amount of money that has been spent at Stamford Bridge. Given that Luton has scored goals in most of their home games, there’s a good probability that both teams will score in this one. However, their record of three clean sheets in their last 22 Premier League away games has to be concerning.
At home, Luton Town is a powerful team. At Kenilworth Road, they have given every visiting team serious competition. On Saturday, Chelsea’s defensive weaknesses and inconsistent play could be exploited. Luton Town may just be able to gain a vital point in what is sure to be a thrilling match.
