Luton Town vs Middlesbrough Prediction and Betting Tips | April 24th 2023

Luton Town and Middlesbrough go head-to-head as round 44 of the EFL Championship comes to an end on Monday.

Currently separated by just one point in the upper echelons of the table, we anticipate a thrilling contest ensuing at Kenilworth Road.

Luton Town were denied a third win on the trot last Wednesday as they could only salvage a 1-1 draw against 10-man Reading at the Select Car Leasing Stadium.

However, with that result, Rob Edwards’ men have now gone 11 straight games without defeat, claiming seven wins and four draws since February’s 1-0 loss against league leaders Burnley.

With 75 points from 43 games, Luton are currently third in the EFL Championship table, one point and one place above Monday’s visitors.

Middlesbrough, meanwhile, turned in a superb team performance as they came from behind to pick up a 3-1 victory over Hull City last time out.

This followed a 5-1 thrashing of Norwich City at the Riverside Stadium which saw their three-game winless run come to an end.

While Middlesbrough set out to pick up a third consecutive win, they journey to Kenilworth Road, where they have failed to win in their last three visits since August 2019.
