Luton Town vs Sheffield United Preview

• Competition: EFL Championship
• Date: Saturday, February 15
• Time: 03:00 PM GMT
• Venue: Kenilworth Road

Luton Town vs Sheffield United will be played at Kenilworth Road on February 15 in the EFL Championship. On Saturday afternoon, the second-placed team will lock horns against Luton who are sitting at the bottom position.

Nobody expected Luton Town to be in this position this season. Just a few seasons ago they were in the Premier League and now they find themselves in the relegation zone of the Championship.

If they get a string of positive results they can get out of this zone but looking at their form and quality of players this will be a very tough task for them. In 31 games, they have won seven, drawn six, and lost 18 games, with 27 points on board they are at the 24th spot. In the last five games, they have three games and drawn two fixtures. In their last game against Sheffield United, they lost by two goals and will look to take revenge in this fixture for sure.

The Blades are in fine form and are in the promotion race to the Premier League. They are just two points behind leaders Leeds United and surely will look to get a direct promotion to the top division. As of now they can’t afford to drop points and need to show consistency which they have shown this season till now. Despite Luton being a bottom-placed team they can be a big problem for the away side.

In 32 games, Sheffield United has won 21 games, six matches have ended in a draw and they lost five games. Other teams are also just behind the Blades and will be hoping for them to drop points. In the last five games, Sheffield United won four games and lost one, they lost against Hull City and will look to not repeat the same mistakes against Luton. This will be a mouthwatering clash for sure.

On that note, let’s take a look at the Luton Town vs Sheffield United team news:

Key Players in Luton Town vs Sheffield United

Carlton Morris (Luton Town)

Morris is a key player for Luton and is a perfect captain for a team. Even though things are not going well for Luton this season in the Championship he is not backing down and he always gives his best on the pitch.

Morris is a quality striker who can score from distances and is a proper poacher. Morris is an intense presser of the ball and likes to put pressure on the defenders. He is a robust player but in these difficult times, he will need to step up to help his team get results.

In 28 games, he scored seven goals provided two assists and has played 2064 minutes this season. In the last five games, he has taken eight shots out of which three were on target, he also generated 0.8 xG in those fixtures and created seven shot-creating actions.

Callum O’Hare (Sheffield United)

He possesses a game-changing ability, he is a player full of courage and bravery. Chis Wilder fully trusts him as he played a key role under him at Coventry City as well. With the ball and without the ball he is very aggressive and direct. Even though sometimes he can lose his cool and get booked still he is someone who is a big headache for opponents. There were even rumours of him joining a Premier League club. Hare will surely be a threat to Luton in this fixture.

In 31 games, he scored two goals and provided five assists, he played 2457 minutes this season. In the last five games, he took 10 shots and three were on target, he made six interceptions and six blocks in these games and also created 14 shot-creating actions.

Luton Town vs Sheffield United Prediction

Despite being the away team Sheffield United are clear favourites to win this fixture. Luton are struggling a lot this season and now at are bottom in the points table. Their hope of surviving the relegation battle is going away match by match. This will be a very difficult fixture for the home team for sure. Most probably the away team will win and will take all three points.

Predicted Score: Luton Town 0-3 Sheffield United
