Chelsea vs Luton Town tips: Blues backed to unleash Friday night thrashing on Hatters
Chelsea Manager Mauricio Pochettino
Planet Sport Bet ambassador Robbie Savage looks ahead to Chelsea's Friday night encounter with newly promoted Luton Town.
Chelsea take on Luton Town on Friday night in the Premier League.
Remarkable story, what a job Rob Edwards has done and he's coming up against the Chelsea side who have only won five of their last 31 Premier League games.
This will be six from 32? I've got no doubt that Chelsea with good recruitment will start winning games.
I think this game will be to nil. I'm gonna go Chelsea four, Luton Town nil.
Robbie's Tip: Chelsea to win 4-0
Team News
The Blues are without Christopher Nkunku, Reece James, Wesley Fofana, Trevoh Chalobah, Armando Broja and Marcus Bettinelli.
There are also doubts over Benoit Badiashile and Carney Chukwuemeka.
Luton, on the other hand, will be without Reece Burke, Jordan Clark, Gabriel Osho and Dan Potts.
Key stats
- Chelsea are winless in six Premier League games
- Enzo Fernandez has only enjoyed one win against a current Premier League club since arriving at Stamford Bridge in January - that sole success came against Bournemouth last May.
- Chelsea have won five of their last 31 Premier League matches
- Luton's last win over Chelsea came in 1991
Planet Sport's other bets to consider
Robbie Savage has backed Chelsea to win by four and that shouldn't come as a surprise. If little old Brighton can squeeze four goals past Luton, billion-dollar Blues should at least match that number - especially at home.
With the Blues expected to push from the very first minute, it could prove to be a busy Friday night for Luton's back four. Plenty of attacks mean plenty of opportunities for corners.
Luton's journey to the Premier League was remarkable, though the Hatters simply lack enough fire power to trouble the likes of Chelsea in offensive areas.
