Tottenham are three points behind fourth-place Aston Villa in the race for the top four.
Luton Town, on the other hand, are 17th in the standings. The Hatters failed to win any of their last eight league games.
They are only out of the bottom three thanks to Nottingham Forest’s recent points deduction for PSR violations.
Rob Edwards’ team took just two points from the last six matches in the division. It was the second-worst points total in the last six games by any Premier League side.
Spurs claimed a 1-0 win over Luton at Kenilworth Road in the reverse fixture. Having had Yves Bissouma sent off just before halftime, Spurs played with 10 men for over half of the fixture.
Luton gave Spurs everything they could handle, yet couldn’t come up with a point. Tottenham centre-back Micky van de Ven scored the game’s only goal in the 52nd minute. A shaky 10-man Spurs held on for the win.
Tottenham won five of their last six home matches. They outscored their last six opponents 15-7. All six matches saw both teams score and over 2.5 goals at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Luton took 10 of their 22 points in the league on the road. Although they failed to win any of their last five road matches, the Hatters drew three of those fixtures. No team has conceded more goals away from home than Luton’s 34.
Heung-min Son leads Tottenham in goals scored with 14. He has contributed 24% of Spurs’ goals this term.
Postecoglou will hope to have a fully fit Richarlison available for the match. The forward missed three games in February and March before returning to the squad for the 3-0 loss to Fulham. He only played 10 minutes of that fixture. Richarlison has 10 goals this term.
Tottenham eked out a win away from home in the reverse fixture, 1-0, with 10 men.
Luton should once again give Spurs a tough time, but ultimately, the Hatters should lose once more. Our algorithm predicts a score of 2-1 to Tottenham at home.
