Manchester City vs Luton Town
A win for Luton could see them climb out of the relegation zone and above Everton and Nottingham Forest today, but the Hatters have never won an away league match against the reigning top-flight champions in 16 attempts (D3 L13), losing the last nine by an aggregate score of 27-2. Rob Edwards’ side enjoyed an impressive 2-1 win against Bournemouth last time out, and they are looking to win consecutive Premier League games for the second time, previously doing so against Newcastle and Sheffield United in December.
Manchester City vs Luton Town
Man City are hoping to climb to the top of the Premier League table in today’s game, at least temporarily, as they continue to battle with Arsenal and Liverpool for the title. Pep Guardiola’s side are unbeaten in their last 40 home games in all competitions (W34 D6), just two short of their all-time club record of 42 set between December 1919 and November 1921. The home team have won their last four home league games against Luton by an aggregate score of 12-1. They last hosted them in April 1999 in the third tier (2-0), while they last did so in the top-flight in February 1992 (4-0).
