Luton Town vs Leicester City predictions headline a fascinating League One lunchtime, as a pair of sides built for far higher divisions scrap for momentum in the third tier. Kick-off at Kenilworth Road is 12.30pm on Saturday.
Two clubs with recent Championship and Premier League history meet near the middle of the table, but the form lines pull in opposite directions. Luton have been steady at home; Leicester have been excellent on their travels.
A competitive, open afternoon looks likely, with both defences carrying obvious question marks.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson expects Leicester City’s travelling form to tell at Kenilworth Road, and he has built two selections around the visitors’ attacking threat.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Emil Riis to score anytime | 15/8 (Ladbrokes) | Emil Riis has the profile to trouble a Luton side that has kept only one clean sheet in 10 League One games. Leicester have scored in each of their last five outings and racked up 10 goals across five away matches, so the supply line should be there for their forwards. The Hatters have shipped 18 goals already this term and looked vulnerable in their 1-0 home defeat to Bradford City. At 15/8, backing the Dane to get on the scoresheet makes plenty of sense against a defence this generous. |
| John Lundstram to score anytime | 6/1 (Ladbrokes) | John Lundstram has scored in each of Leicester City’s last two League One games and has three goals this season from midfield. Luton Town have kept only one clean sheet in 10 games, and both teams have scored in eight of their matches. Leicester have been strong on the road, unbeaten in five away games with 10 goals scored. At 6/1 with Ladbrokes, Lundstram is a bigger-price way to back the visitors’ goal threat alongside Emil Riis. |

How Luton Town go into the game
Luton Town arrive 13th in League One, 14 points from their opening 10 fixtures after four wins, two draws and four defeats. At Kenilworth Road they have been steady rather than spectacular, taking two wins and two draws from five home outings while losing once, with seven goals scored and five conceded.
The Hatters have blown hot and cold, winning two of their last five. They beat Barnsley 2-1 at home last time out. Before that came a 2-1 loss at Milton Keynes Dons, a 4-1 win at Wycombe Wanderers, a 1-0 home defeat by Bradford City and a 2-1 reverse at Stevenage. Just one clean sheet in 10 games underlines their defensive fragility.
How Leicester City go into the game
Leicester City travel down in 10th, hovering on the fringe of the play-off race with 15 points from 10 games. Their away form is the eye-catcher: unbeaten on the road at two wins and three draws from five, with 10 goals scored and only five conceded.
Russell Martin‘s side go into this having won three of their last five, including a 4-0 romp at Bromley and a 4-3 thriller at Stockport County. A 2-1 home win over Doncaster Rovers and a 1-1 draw at Barnsley sit alongside a 3-1 home loss to Peterborough United. They have found the net in every one of those five outings.
Luton Town vs Leicester City head-to-head
Luton Town and Leicester City have no recent League One head-to-head record to call on, the clubs having spent recent years in different divisions. With no meaningful meetings to lean on, current form is the better guide, and that points to a tight, competitive afternoon at Kenilworth Road.
