Luton have the slimmest and most minuscule of chances of staying up, thanks to Nottingham Forest’s points deduction. However, their goal difference is so vast that there needs to be a 13-goal swing with Forest losing and the Hatters getting a hatful of goals without reply. They’ve likely accepted their fate and will just want to round off the season with a good performance against the Cottagers.
Fulham are safely secure in mid-table and will have some motivation for extra prize money, potentially moving above both Wolves and Crystal Palace into 12th place.

⚔️ Luton v Fulham Head-to-Head
Luton will be dreaming of a huge scoreline against the West London side, but sadly for them, they were on the end of one last season in the Championship, losing 7-0 at Craven Cottage last May. You have to go back 26 years (9 games) to see a Luton win in this fixture, back when both sides were in League One. Most recently, Fulham won a relatively close battle back in September, 1-0.
The Hatters gave a good account of themselves at the Cottage and edged the xG battle despite only having 22% possession. Substitute Carlos Vinicius notched the only goal of the game with 25 minutes of normal time to go, but more entertainment for neutral observers can be expected this time around.
📊 Luton Form and Stats
Luton are in dire form, with no wins and four losses in their last five games. In fact, since the end of January, they’ve won just one of their last 16 games, a run stretching back to the beginning of February. Their home form in that time has been a little better, with two wins, three draws and five defeats in their last ten. They still pose an attacking threat, scoring at least one goal in 18 of their last 19 fixtures. One surprising stat is if the game was started at half time, the Hatters would have lost only 17% of their games. This perhaps overlooks the fact they were already losing half of their games by the midway point. They’re likely to let in a goal at the other end, with just 11% of their home games ending with a Luton clean sheet.
📊 Fulham Form and Stats
The Cottagers have also been in a rut, with just two wins in their last ten games. They are a danger on the road however, with just two defeats in their last six matches. They’ve scored in 67% of their away fixtures this season, averaging 1.1 goals a game, and keeping a clean sheet in just 22% of road matches. Their goals also tend to come in bursts, with Fulham not scoring in 33% of their away fixtures.
💰 Luton v Fulham Best Bets
Although a wild bet on over 8.5 goals at 66/1 is tempting, if we stick to reality, over 2.5 first half goals at 4.50 with Paddy Power has the greater chance of landing, with the context of the final day and both teams having defences that can’t be trusted, an open contest is on the cards. If you want some advice on making sure you get the maximum value when picking a bet such as this, take a look at Andy’s guide to picking an overs goals bet.
On the goalscoring front, the top of the market looks like slim pickings but Ross Barkley to score anytime at 4.50 with Paddy Power looks like the one for us. He’s averaging 0.17 goals per 90 minutes over the season and 2.68 shots per home game. Although he’s not quite the same player he was years ago, he still has the ability to produce something special and enjoys playing against London clubs, with goals against Chelsea and Arsenal under his belt already.
