Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the English Premier League match.
Newcastle vs Luton Town preview
The Magpies are currently 8th, hardly having chances to reach the Champions League qualification zone. They have lost 4 out of their last 5 Premier League games, including the ones against Luton Town and Nottingham Forest. Yes, in the other two lost matches Newcastle United faced strong opponents, namely Liverpool and Chelsea. The side has reached the fifth round of the FA Cup, eliminating Fulham.
Luton Town have performed well in the last 5 games, winning 3 of them. They lost their game against Chelsea (2:3) and ended the match versus Burnley in a draw (2:2). In the last Premier League game Luton Town surprisingly beat Brighton (4:0). The Hatters have also eliminated Everton from the FA Cup to advance to the fifth round.
Newcastle — Luton Town head-to-head
The sides played their previous game of this season on December 23. Newcastle were obviously better but they failed to score, conceded a goal and eventually lost that match. The Hatters played against the Magpies in the FA Cup in 2018. Newcastle United won that game (3:1). However, these were different teams compared to what we know now.
Newcastle vs Luton Town odds
Newcastle United are the obvious favourites of this game. You can bet on them to win at around 2/5. The odds on Luton Town to win are at 63/10. You can also bet on a draw at around 41/10.

Newcastle vs Luton Town prediction
I extremely doubt that Luton Town will be lucky enough to stand against the Magpies for the second time in a row. The Hatters had a perfect game versus Brighton, but I think that this is where it ends. The Hatters have managed to leave the relegation zone. They keep on struggling to stay in the Premier League. However, in the other games.
The Magpies want to strike back for the defeat they suffered a month and a half ago. They will definitely do it. Although, I believe that Luton Town won’t give up without fighting.
