Luton will lose points again! Luton Town vs QPR Prediction
One of the matches in the 4th round of the Championship will take place on Friday in Luton, where Luton Town will host QPR at Kenilworth Road. Here’s a match prediction from the Dailysports expert team.
Luton Town
Luton Town spent last season in the Premier League but couldn't avoid relegation, finishing third from the bottom. Their start to the new Championship season has been far from ideal. They began with a heavy 1-4 home defeat to Burnley.
Following that, Luton Town managed a goalless draw away to Portsmouth, but then lost narrowly 0-1 away to Preston in their last Championship match. This past Tuesday, the "Hatters" faced QPR in the EFL Cup. The teams exchanged goals during regular time, with the match ultimately being decided in a penalty shootout, where QPR emerged victorious.
QPR
The "Super Hoops" ended last season in the Championship with a three-match winning streak, which ensured their survival in the division. In the new campaign, QPR suffered a 1-3 home defeat to West Brom in the opening round.
However, their form has improved since. QPR secured a 2-1 away win against Cambridge United in the EFL Cup, followed by two draws in the Championship. First, they played out a 2-2 draw away at Sheffield United, and then they drew 1-1 at home against Plymouth. Notably, QPR had a numerical advantage from the 29th minute in the Plymouth match but failed to capitalize on it.
