Luton Town and Brighton will clash at Kenilworth Road on the 30th of January, with both teams needing the points on offer for different reasons. Luton are currently sitting in the Relegation Zone, but a win could see them move out of it if other results go their way. Brighton, on the other hand, are currently chasing more European football next season, and needs to keep up with the pack. So, who will pick up the points in this English Premier League clash? I provide the answers to this question in my prediction below. Take a look.
🏆 Luton vs Brighton: Who Will Win?
Nobody gave Luton much hope of staying in the Premier League this season, but they are making a good fist of it. They are currently in better form than their relegation rivals, picking up two wins and a draw from their previous six matches. In their last match, they got a last-minute equaliser against Burnley, which could prove to be a pivotal point come the end of the season. If they can finish in 17th place, it will be as good as winning the Premier League title for them.
Brighton have become one of the most entertaining teams in the league as Roberto De Zerbi likes to prioritise attack over defense, but they will be picking up too many draws for his liking. From their previous six matches, they have drawn four games, with their only win being a 4-2 defeat of Tottenham Hotspur. In that time, they have scored just the 6 goals, which will be somewhat of a concern for the Italian. They are one of the top scorers in the league, so he knows that his players can score goals.
A trip to Kenilworth Road has proved a tricky assignment for several teams this season, and I am expecting another close match. However, my money has to be on a Brighton win. They have the better team, and the goals will start coming eventually. My score prediction is a 2-1 win for the away team.
My Prediction: 🏆 Luton 1 Brighton 2 ⚽

Luton vs Brighton: Match Winner Odds
When you look at the match winner odds for this Luton vs Brighton clash, you will see that Brighton are the firm favourites to win. I think the odds are fair for this match, considering the quality that Brighton have over Luton and their current position in the table. If you like to place accumulator bets, then you might want to think about adding a Brighton win to yours. Below are the match winner odds:
Team | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Luton | 4.75 | 4.75 | 5.00 | 5.20 | 5.20 |
Draw | 4.10 | 4.10 | 4.20 | 4.20 | 4.30 |
Brighton | 1.58 | 1.58 | 1.62 | 1.60 | 1.60 |
Luton vs Brighton: Both Teams To Score Odds
The bookmakers believe that both teams will score in this match, and I can see why this is the case. Brighton, up until recently, have not struggled to find the back of the net as can be seen from the fact that only the top five have scored more goals than them. Luton are one of the lowest scorers in the league, but in their previous 6 matches, they have scored at an average of just under 2 goals per match. Below you can see the Both Teams to Score odds:
Yes/No | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Yes | 1.56 | 1.56 | 1.68 | 1.62 | 1.68 |
No | 2.22 | 2.22 | 2.15 | 2.06 | 2.12 |
Luton vs Brighton: Over/Under 2.5 Goals Odds
The bookmakers think that there will be plenty of goals in this one, so you might want to tune into it even if you do not support either side. When Brighton and Luton met last August, the Seagulls came away with a 4-1 victory, but I am expecting a closer battle this time around as Luton are slowly becoming accustomed to life in the EPL. With the scoring form that Luton have been in and the fact that Brighton average 1.81 goals per match, there should be goals. Below are the over/under 2.5 goals odds:
Yes/No | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Over 2.5 | 1.55 | 1.55 | 1.60 | 1.56 | 1.61 |
Under 2.5 | 2.26 | 2.26 | 2.30 | 2.25 | 2.33 |
✔️ Luton vs Brighton - Betting Tips
Let me now provide you with some of my top football betting tips for this clash between Luton and Brighton.
- Tip 1: Bet on Brighton to win: Both these teams are neck-and-neck when it comes to the form table, having both picked up a total of 7 points from the last 18 that have been on offer. However, Brighton, undoubtedly, have the better team, and I cannot see Luton walking away with a win here. They might be able to sneak a draw at best, but I am backing the Seagulls to claim the 3 points. 10Bet Sport are currently offering odds of 1.62 for a Brighton win.
- Tip 2: Bet on both teams to score: Luton have scored at least once in their previous six EPL matches, while I have already touched upon the attacking threat that De Zerbi's men carry. Brighton have kept two consecutive clean sheets, but I am backing the Hatters to score a consolation goal in a losing cause. Those who want to bet on this market can find odds of 1.68 at BetUK.
- Tip 3: Bet on Facundo Buonanotte to be booked: Some punters like to bet on a player to pick up a yellow card as such a market can have decent odds. If you want to bet on a booking in this match, then I recommend that you bet on Buonanotte as he has 5 yellow cards in 12 appearances - 8 of those, he came off the bench. BetUk are currently offering odds of 5.30 for him to be booked.
- Tip 4: Bet on Brighton to win 2-1: If you want to bet on my predicted scoreline of a Brighton 2-1 win, then LeoVegas are currently offering odds of 8.00 for this scoreline.
1️⃣ Luton Update
Luton Town started the season as one of the favourites to be relegated, and not much has changed after 21 matches have been played. They are just 1 point adrift of safety, so they will be quietly confident about being able to beat the drop. They will also be aware that Everton and Nottingham Forest could face further sanctions for breaching FFP rules. If they can keep making Kenilworth Road a tricky place for opponents to come, then they might just stay up come May.

Player | Reason |

Tom Lockyer | Heart Issues |
Issa Kabore | Called up to National Team |
2️⃣Brighton Update
De Zerbi has Brighton punching above their weight, and they will be looking for another European campaign next season. However, they need to start turning draws into wins - they have a total of 8 draws this season, which is the highest number of draws in the league. Four of these draws have come in their last six matches, so they need to start winning to ensure that they do not end up slipping away from European contention. Whenever Brighton play, there is one thing that is guaranteed, and that is entertainment.
