Matchday 24 of the EFL Championship 2024/25 season will include Swansea City hosting Luton Town on Sunday evening at the Swansea.com Stadium.

English referee, Farai Hallam will take up the mantle of officiating the fixture. The Swansea City vs Luton Town contest can affect the overall shape of the Championship table.

Inconsistencies and mixed results have marked the recent games of Swansea City. In the last six games, the Welsh outfit has managed two victories, two draws and two defeats. Swansea has been held back by an ineffective offensive line. The club has also not kept a clean sheet in eight matches. Swansea City’s objective this season will be to beat the competition and earn a place in the Premier League promotion playoffs.

Luton Town has also been a victim of inconsistencies in its latest games. Luton has acquired two victories along with three defeats and a draw in the last six matches. During this period, Luton scored seven goals and conceded 12. After an enriching season in the Premier League, Luton is nowhere near the desired goal of gaining another promotion. The club’s fortunes this season have not been helped by an atrocious goal difference of -13. Beating Swansea will help Luton to climb several places in the Championship table.
