LUTON TOWN- BARNSLEY


The pitch is likely to be a little heavy at Kenilworth Road and that is my only concern about the game, in which I strongly favour the home team.


Think that Town are in a false position in the table, they currently sit 3 places and 5 points above today's opponents, who are in the final relegation spot.


In recent starts Mike Newell's team have shown a lot of talent and team spirit and at times, have comprehensively outplayed, some of the division's top sides in Birmingham, West Bromwich and Preston.


Strong at home, where they have scored more goals than any team outside the top 6, Luton will be fresh and raring to go, having not played for 8 days.


Barnsley have beaten only Burnley ( on a very poor run) in 10 starts and have failed to score, in 6 of their last 8. They have tried to address this problem, by signing a new striker, but two deals have fallen through at the last moment.


Town to put some daylight between theirselves and the relegation scrap, home win.


4 points Luton -1/2 ball asian line 1.83.


Good Luck.
