League One - Swansea v Luton Football betting preview

With an eleven point lead at the top of the table its fairly safe to assume that Swansea are heading up as champions. A fairly faultless league campaign has seen them rack up 20 wins from 31 attempts and they are scoring goals for fun averaging almost 2 goals a game and they have scored in all bar 4 games this season.

Their home record is equally impressive and they are aiming for a 10th consecutive home win. The Swans were beaten 1 – 0 midweek in the first-leg of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy southern area final. Perhaps a bit of complacency had crept in but that’s the kind of shot in the arm some teams need throughout the season and there is little chance of it happening again tonight.

Luton on the other hand are having a dismal season. Lots of off the field problems saw them deducted 10 points for going into administration and they have been in trouble ever since then.

Added to that they have the worst away record in the league and have only the one win to their credit. A lot of their players departed at the start of January and they are left with a young inexperienced outfit.

Verdict

Swansea’s midweek defeat should have them focused on the job in hand. They have not tasted defeat too often so manager Roberto Martinez will be keen to get back to winning ways. Luton are renowned for their battling performances but it’s hard to see them getting any joy here having conceded 8 goals in their last two games. Swansea can win this and win it comfortably, providing that the mind is right, which I think it will be. If they score early on then I get the feeling that this could be over well before the 90th minute.
