Luton Town vs Cardiff City Prediction
Luton Town's struggles in front of goal have seen them plummet down the table in recent weeks but their home form has been a major source of optimism.
Cardiff City are eerily close to the dropzone and only have points deductions handed to Reading and Derby County to thank for being outside it.
The Welsh outfit have, however, improved in recent weeks and have also recorded positive results in recent matches against Luton. We are backing the points to be shared in a low-scoring draw.
Prediction: Luton Town 1-1 Cardiff City
