Luton Town, Recent FormWith Arsenal sitting a clear 14 places above them in the table, Luton Town won't feel totally dejected with their 4-3 home defeat by them last time out. During that encounter they had 33% possession and had 6 attempts on goal with 4 on target, while their opponents hit 9 of their 23 shots on goal.
Rob Edwards, their chief, will be doing some careful analysis of his defence, who have seen their goal breached 13 times in their last 6 games while somehow managing to pick up some points along the way with 8 goals scored. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 15 games overall.
They will be looking to try and improve on a largely bad set of recent results that have seen them defeated in 4 of their last 6 league matches, with just a single victory recorded. It's fair to say they'll need a serious change of form if they want to start moving up the table. Their league form has not been good this season, with 10 defeats in 15 matches.
Manchester City, Recent FormThe 1-0 away defeat to Aston Villa will not have sat easily with the Manchester City squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. They achieved 54% possession in that match and had 2 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against Aston Villa's tally of 22 efforts at goal, 7 of which were on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 17 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 10 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games on the road.
Man City will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement.
On an individual basis, Erling Haaland will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 14 goals in Manchester City's 15 league games this season.
The last time these sides were pitched against each other in the league, it ended in a 2-0 win for Manchester City.
The Citizens will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against Luton, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 6 meetings between the two.
When playing away from home in the league, Man City have failed to win any of their last 3 meetings with Luton, with the last 3 of those games ending in a draw.
Luton manager Rob Edwards has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Mads Andersen (Hamstring), Reece Burke (Unknown), Tom Lockyer (Back), Albert Lokonga (Unknown), Marvelous Nakamba (Knee), Dan Potts (Ankle) and Cauley Woodrow (Calf) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Pep Guardiola has a number of injury concerns in his Man City squad to contend with: Kevin De Bruyne (Hamstring), Jérémy Doku (Leg) and Zack Steffen (Knee surgery)
