Luton Town are winless in their last six Premier League matches. Yet, the Hatters are just three points away from Premier League relegation safety. Will our algorithm predict a win for Luton Town or will their winless streak continue?
Bournemouth went unbeaten in their last two Premier League matches. They will kick off their game in hand against Luton in 13th place.
Although the Cherries have looked impressive under first-year manager Androni Iraola, they have struggled for consistency on the pitch.

The Cherries took just six points from the last six games, scoring eight goals and conceding nine times. Striker Dominic Solanke has 14 goals this term but hasn’t scored in his last three league appearances.
Luton picked up just two points from their last six league fixtures. The team was outscored 17-10 during that time. All six matches saw both teams score goals. Luton are scoring, but they are conceding goals too.
This will be the first Premier League meeting between the clubs. Their last match was played during the 2021-22 Championship season. Both fixtures finished with both teams scoring and over 2.5 goals.
The trend between the clubs during the 2021-22 Championship was one of home wins. Bournemouth claimed a 2-1 victory at Dean Court and Luton Town won 3-2 at Kenilworth Road.
Ten of Luton’s 21 points have come on the road this season. Rob Edwards’ team won’t be pushovers at Dean Court. However, Luton failed to win their last four road matches in the league.
Five players are likely to be ruled out of the midweek match for Iraola. Defender Max Aarons has a leg injury, defender James Hill has a groin problem, and Lloyd Kelly is nursing an inner thigh issue.
Meanwhile, Ryan Fredericks and Marcos Sensei are both set to miss the fixture. The former has a calf problem and the latter is overcoming a thigh injury.
Edwards could have up to 11 absentees from the first team. There is hope that striker Elijah Adebayo will be fit to play.
Adebayo is vital to Luton’s fight for survival. He has nine goals this season but hasn’t played in the club’s last four games. All four of the matches ended without wins.
Our AI-power score prediction is sticking with the previous trend between these clubs from 2021-22. Bournemouth should pick up a 2-1 win at home. Solanke could add to his goal scoring tally with a goal anytime.
