Luton meets Manchester City in the FA Cup round of 16 this Tuesday. The Hatters had a good run until recently and are now on the downhill again. As for the Citizens, they are doing their job well enough, spending only enough energy to win and nothing more than that.
Before Betting on Luton vs. Manchester City
Luton lost once again in their latest performance, which was against Liverpool last Wednesday, 4-1. They were up at one moment, but the Reds’ surge in the second half was too much for the newbies in the Premiership, who allowed four goals in a row, experiencing what it is like to wake a sleeping giant. It was their third loss in a row.
When talking about Luton, one thing is sure. The efficiency of their matches is very high. None of the previous four didn’t end with fewer than three goals, and only one during this stretch saw under 3.5 hits. Also, the latest four have seen both teams scoring.
Meanwhile, City has been fantastic over the past couple of weeks, with them having nine wins and only one tie in the past ten events. Though, there has been a slowing in the attack over the last three contests, with the champs netting only one goal in each event.
After playing 1-1 at home against Chelsea, they beat Brentford at the Etihad and Bournemouth on the road with the same result, 1-0. It seems that Guardiola’s guys aren’t willing to push with 100% of their power but rather save the energy for the finish of the season. Therefore, after getting the lead, they slow down and kill the pace on the field.
