Luton Town 0-1 Sheffield United

Current streaks

Recent form

Luton Town

Luton Town are currently enduring a difficult period, finding themselves rooted to the bottom of the Championship table and without a win in their last 10 matches. The Hatters' recent form has been particularly poor, with four losses and two draws in their last six games across all competitions. Their goal-scoring woes are evident, having netted just three times in this period, whilst conceding nine. Defensively, they've managed only one clean sheet in their last six outings. The majority of their recent matches have been low-scoring affairs, with 83% of games featuring fewer than 2.5 goals. Their highest-scoring game in this run was a 3-2 defeat to Oxford United, which stands out as an anomaly in an otherwise goal-shy period for Luton Town.

Sheffield United

Sheffield United have been in scintillating form recently, securing five wins in their last six matches and propelling themselves to second place in the Championship. The Blades are currently enjoying a three-match winning streak, showcasing their resilience and offensive prowess by scoring multiple goals in each of these victories. Their only blemish in this impressive run came in a surprising 3-0 home defeat to Hull City, which stands out as an anomaly given their otherwise solid defensive record. Sheffield United have been particularly prolific in front of goal, netting 10 times in their last six outings, with 67% of their matches featuring over 2.5 goals. Their ability to keep clean sheets in two of these games further underlines their well-rounded performances, as they continue to push for promotion with a positive goal difference and an average of 1.67 goals scored per game.

Recent home/away form

Luton Town

Luton Town have experienced a mixed run of form at home in their recent fixtures, with their last six matches at Kenilworth Road yielding two wins, two draws, and two losses. The Hatters have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring only five goals in these six games, averaging a meagre 0.83 goals per match. Defensively, they have conceded the same number of goals, maintaining a goal difference of zero. Interestingly, 67% of these home games have seen under 2.5 goals, highlighting a trend towards low-scoring affairs. Luton's most recent home victory came against Derby County in a 2-1 win, but they have since failed to score in their last three home matches, resulting in two losses and a draw. Despite their current 24th position in the league, Luton Town have managed to keep one clean sheet in this six-game stretch, demonstrating some resilience in defence amidst their offensive struggles.

Sheffield United

Sheffield United have been in impressive form away from home, winning five of their last six matches on the road. The Blades are currently on a four-game winning streak away from Bramall Lane, demonstrating their resilience and ability to perform in hostile environments. Their defensive solidity has been particularly noteworthy, with three clean sheets in these six away fixtures and only four goals conceded overall, averaging a miserly 0.67 goals against per game. While there haven't been any particularly high-scoring encounters, Sheffield United have consistently found the back of the net, scoring in all six matches and averaging 1.5 goals per game. This strong away form has undoubtedly contributed to their lofty position of 2nd in the Championship table, with 67 points from 32 games, suggesting they are serious contenders for promotion.
