Luton Town vs Middlesbrough Comments: It's hard for the host to win
From not being listed in the relegation group, Luton Town made the rest to go from surprise to surprise when they stagnate in 3rd place in the rankings. With 75 points, they are just behind Burnley and Sheffield Utd.
With 12 points more than the 7th place held by West Brom, Luton Town is sure to kick the promotion play-off round (the 2022/2023 season has 3 rounds left). Also for that reason, Luton Town has not played really determined in the last few rounds. Even, they were almost empty-handed on Reading's field.
This round, Luton Town will host Middlesbrough, the team ranked right behind them on the table. Although he is sure to be in the top 6 like Luton Town, Boro shows no signs of loosening his legs. They still want to win every time they go to battle.
This is partly reflected in the fact that Boro has just had 2 separate victories against Norwich (3-1) and Hull (5-1). Before that, they played very resiliently to regain 1 point from Bristol City. With such a correlation, should choose the away team.
