Recent form
Sunderland
Sunderland have shown resilient form in recent weeks, remaining unbeaten in their last five league matches. The Black Cats have demonstrated an impressive ability to find the back of the net, scoring in each of their last five games and averaging 1.5 goals per match over their previous six outings. Defensively, they've been solid, keeping two clean sheets in their last six games. Their current eight-game unbeaten run in the league has propelled them to fourth place in the Championship, putting them in a strong position for a potential promotion push. The team's recent matches have been entertaining affairs, with 67% of their last six games featuring over 2.5 goals, including a thrilling 3-2 away victory against Middlesbrough. Sunderland's ability to avoid defeat, coupled with their consistent goal-scoring threat, suggests they are in good form as they continue their campaign.
Luton Town
Luton Town are currently enduring a difficult run of form, finding themselves in 23rd position in the Championship and without a win in their last nine matches. The Hatters have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring just four goals in their last six games, with an average of 0.67 goals per match. Defensively, they've been vulnerable, conceding nine goals during this period, including a high-scoring 3-2 defeat to Oxford United. Their inability to keep clean sheets, managing just one in the last six outings, has contributed to their poor run. The team's goal difference of -5 over these games highlights their struggles at both ends of the pitch. With 67% of their recent matches seeing fewer than 2.5 goals, Luton Town's games have generally been low-scoring affairs, reflecting their offensive difficulties and somewhat improved defensive performances in some matches.

Recent home/away form
Sunderland
Sunderland have shown impressive form at home, with a recent run of three consecutive wins before their FA Cup defeat to Stoke City. The Black Cats have been involved in some exciting matches, with 83% of their last six home games seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring. Their attacking prowess is evident, netting an average of 1.67 goals per game, whilst their defence has been somewhat leaky, conceding 1.33 goals per match. Interestingly, Sunderland have drawn their two most recent home fixtures 2-2, maintaining their high-scoring trend. Despite the recent draws, their overall home form has contributed significantly to their strong league position, sitting 4th in the Championship with 59 points from 31 games.
Luton Town
Luton Town have been struggling mightily in their recent away fixtures, enduring a dismal run of five consecutive defeats before managing to secure a draw against Sheffield Wednesday. Their away form has been particularly poor, with the team failing to keep a clean sheet in any of their last six matches on the road. The Hatters have been leaking goals at an alarming rate, conceding an average of 1.83 goals per game whilst only managing to score 0.83 goals themselves. This defensive frailty has contributed to their precarious position in the league, currently sitting in 23rd place. Despite the high-scoring affair against Oxford United, where they narrowly lost 3-2, Luton Town have generally been involved in relatively low-scoring matches, with half of their recent away games featuring under 2.5 goals. The team's inability to convert chances and shore up their defence has led to a concerning goal difference of -6 over these six away fixtures, highlighting the urgent need for improvement if they hope to climb out of the relegation zone.
