West Bromwich Albion v Luton Town - Sky Bet Championship
West Brom have won four of their last five games against Luton

West Brom host Luton Town at The Hawthorns in the EFL Championship on Saturday, looking to end their seven-game winless run.

The Baggies haven't won a league game since their 5-2 drubbing of Hull City in August, which is also their only victory in the competition so far this season.

Steve Bruce's side are down in 22nd place with 10 points from 12 games and have emerged as early relegation contenders.

The West Midlands outfit have lost only four times - as much as third-placed Reading - but it's the seven draws which have kept them in the lower reaches of the division.

Since last month, however, things have gotten worse for them, as West Brom have lost three of their last four games, including two in their last two.

Luton Town are up in ninth with 17 points from 12 games and remain unbeaten in their last four outings.

The Hatters are fresh off a pulsating and topsy-turvy 3-3 draw with Huddersfield on Wednesday, as Ben Janckson's 70th-minute equalizer snatched a point for the Terriers.

West Brom vs Luton Town Prediction

Although Luton haven't covered themselves in glory, they are in better shape right now and should be able to come away with a victory.
