One team is chasing a difficult dream, while the other is trying to escape a nightmare. On Monday, April 10, Luton Town vs Blackpool will face each other on matchday 41 of the Championship, in a clash that will showcase two completely different sporting realities in the English promotion tournament, at the historic Kenilworth Road.
Despite showing superiority over many clubs, the Hatters are still far from the direct promotion zone to the Premier League. Therefore, they will seek a victory that, combined with other results, could bring them closer to their objective. On the other hand, the Seasiders are in the dangerous relegation zone to the third division of England’s soccer and need a win to try to finish the season relieved of any threats.

Betting on Luton Town
Luton Town has been doing well as of late. Since their defeat against Burnley on February 18th, the Hatters have managed to score points in all their subsequent matches, and now they sit in third place on the Championship standings with 68 points.
Although the current sporting situation is noteworthy, there is one factor that makes the team coached by Welshman Rob Edwards a little uncomfortable. It is 8 points away from the direct promotion zone to the Premier League, a place currently occupied by Sheffield United, second in the standings with 76 points.
Luton Town is confident in its firepower and will be looking to add three more points to its tally to keep climbing up positions in the standings. Still, it should be kept in mind that the team heads into this match after a goalless draw against Millwall.
Possible lineup (3-5-2): Ethan Horvath; Gabriel Osho, Tom Lockyer, Amari’i Bell; Marvelous Nakamba, Cody Drameh, Alfie Doughty, Pelly Ruddock, Allan Campbell; Elijah Adebayo, Carlton Morris.
Betting on Blackpool
On the other hand, the conditions in which Blackpool arrives to this next match are of great importance. The Seasiders are second to last in the English second division standings with 35 points, and they are currently being threatened by relegation to League One.
Moreover, the team led by Irishman Mick McCarthy has fallen into a three-game losing streak in its recent matches. The team suffered a defeat last Friday, playing at home against Cardiff, in a match that ended with a 3-1 score.
Blackpool is well aware that if it is to escape relegation to the British third division, it will have to break a difficult jinx. However, the problem is that it will have to do so against one of the potential candidates for promotion.
Possible lineup (4-3-3): Chris Maxwell; Jordan Lawrence-Gabriel, Curtis Nelson, James Husband, Dominic Thompson; Callum Connolly, Sonny Carey, Charlie Patino; Josh Bowler, Ian Poveda, Morgan Rogers.
JefeBet Prediction
Considering what was previously mentioned, we could come to the conclusion that there is an abysmal difference between the clubs that will face each other this week. And in case it wasn’t mentioned before, Luton Town’s most significant advantage is being superior in goal difference with a record of +13 compared to Blackpool’s -22.
Prediction: Luton Town win (LUT 3-0 BLA)
