Burnley 4-0 Luton Town

Current streaks

Recent form

Burnley

Burnley have shown impressive form in recent weeks, maintaining their position in the Championship promotion race. The Clarets have won four of their last six matches across all competitions, including a notable FA Cup victory against Premier League side Southampton. Their defensive solidity is particularly striking, with four clean sheets in their last six games and a miserly 0.67 goals conceded per game. The 4-0 thrashing of Sheffield Wednesday stands out as a high-scoring encounter, demonstrating Burnley's attacking prowess. Despite a heavy 3-0 defeat to Preston in the FA Cup, Burnley have bounced back with a crucial away win against Cardiff City, showing their resilience. The team's goal difference of +5 over the last six matches underlines their overall dominance, while their ability to keep things tight is reflected in the fact that both teams scored in only 17% of these games.

Luton Town

Luton Town's recent form has been concerning, with the team struggling in 22nd position in the Championship. The Hatters have managed just one win in their last six matches, a narrow 1-0 victory over Portsmouth in their most recent outing. Prior to this win, Luton endured a three-game winless streak, including two consecutive losses. Their goal-scoring has been particularly poor, netting only three times in six matches, averaging a mere 0.5 goals per game. Defensively, they've been somewhat more stable, conceding 1.17 goals per game and keeping one clean sheet. Notably, all of Luton's last six matches have seen under 2.5 goals, indicating a trend of low-scoring affairs. Despite their struggles, the team have shown some resilience, managing two draws in this period, both away from home against Sheffield Wednesday and Plymouth Argyle.

Recent home/away form

Burnley

Burnley have been in impressive form at home, showcasing a solid defensive record with six consecutive clean sheets. The Clarets have gone unbeaten in their last six home matches, with three wins and three draws. Notably, they've shown a significant improvement in their attacking prowess in recent games, scoring seven goals in their last three matches after a string of three goalless draws. The standout result in this run was their emphatic 4-0 victory over Sheffield Wednesday, which marks their highest-scoring game in this period. Burnley's defensive solidity is particularly remarkable, having not conceded a single goal in their last six home games. This strong home form has contributed to their current third-place position in the Championship, with 71 points from 35 games.

Luton Town

Luton Town's recent away form has been particularly poor, with the Hatters currently enduring a concerning run of five consecutive defeats on the road. Their last point away from home came in a 1-1 draw against Sheffield Wednesday on 1st February. The team have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring just four goals in their last six away matches, whilst conceding 12. This defensive frailty is highlighted by their failure to keep a clean sheet in any of these games. The highest-scoring match in this run was their 3-2 defeat to Oxford United, which was also the only game where Luton managed to score more than once. With an average of 2.67 total goals per game, Luton's away matches have been relatively high-scoring affairs, despite their own lack of goals. Their poor away form has contributed significantly to their precarious league position, currently sitting in 22nd place in the Championship.
