Luton Town vs Nottingham Forest: The meeting is going to be productive

Nottingham Forest will try to extend their winning streak to six games in the 42nd round of the Champions League. Steve Cooper's team will play away against Luton Town.

After a 3:1 away win over Hull City, Luton Town's defensive performance was marked by a slump. Nathan Jones' side drew 2:2 with Millwall at home. The team was then held to a 1:1 draw with Peterborough United on the road. Earlier this week, Luton Town had an unsuccessful away game against Huddersfield Town and suffered a 0:2 defeat. At the end of 41 games, the club has 65 points. Luton Town is currently fifth in the Championship table.

After a frustrating defeat at the hands of Liverpool and a 0:1 FA Cup exit, Nottingham Forest had a solid run of form over the next three games. First, the team, led by Steve Cooper, beat Blackpool 4:1 on the road. They recorded the next two victories at home. Foresters scored two unanswered goals each against Coventry City and Birmingham City. At the end of 39 appearances, the team has 67 points. Nottingham Forest is currently in fourth place at the Championship table.

Nottingham Forest is very close to a long-awaited return to the elite of English football. As you know, the top two places in the Championship receive a direct entry to the EPL. At the moment, Bournemouth is sitting in second place, having also played 39 games, but the Foresters are six points behind their opponents. However, Nottingham Forest has only one win in their last five matches, while Bournemouth has two wins in that period. Obviously, a win against Luton will create additional pressure on Bournemouth, so Steve Cooper's side will be very active.

Nottingham Forest has improved in the attacking phase and has scored at least twice in the last five meetings. Luton Town is also on the top flight and is a serious contender for the Champions League play-offs. As the main bet, we suggest considering the total over.
