Luton Town vs Manchester City Prediction
Luton Town are currently 18th in the league, one point behind Everton and having won just one of their last five league games. They have produced some good performances this season though; some would feel they deserved to get at least a point in the game against Arsenal.
Not many expect them to remain in the league, but with clubs like Everton and Nottingham Forest on shaky grounds, Luton Town could manage to do the unexpected.
Manchester City, on the other hand, are fourth in the league, six points behind league leaders Arsenal. They lost to Aston Villa recently, and more than the loss, it is the fact that they deserved to lose that has piqued the interest of many. Aston Villa were comfortably the better team in that game, a feeling that not many Manchester City fans would have experienced since Pep Guardiola's arrival.
They are still expected to win the league while breaking a few records on the way, but it is always an interesting thought experiment to imagine how Manchester City would cope if more clubs performed against them like Aston Villa just did.
Manchester City will be the favourites.
Prediction: Luton Town 0-4 Manchester City
