Newcastle United, Recent FormNewcastle United will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 3-1 win in their away outing against Aston Villa. Their share of possession in that meeting was 39%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target, in contrast to Aston Villa, who had 12 shots on goal with 6 on target.
Manager Eddie Howe will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 12 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 11 goals they managed at the other end. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They have lost 4 of their last 6 matches, which will be a focus of concern, but their 2 wins in that period did produce some valuable points nevertheless.
Alexander Isak will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Newcastle United.
Luton Town, Recent FormWhen Luton Town last played in the league they faced Brighton & Hove Albion and produced an outstanding 4-0 home win. They achieved 41% possession in that match and had 18 strikes at goal, with 8 hitting the target, up against Brighton & Hove Albion's tally of 9 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 12 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 8 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 19 of their 21 games overall.
They've had a poor run of form on the road recently, losing 3 of their last 6 away games and managing only 1 win.
Having scored 5 goals in his last 6 league games for Luton Town, Elijah Adebayo will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Luton Town that came out on top with a 1-0 win.
Ahead of this match, Newcastle won't like the look of their goal stats, having failed to secure a goal in their last 2 meetings against The Hatters.
Newcastle manager Eddie Howe has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Elliot Anderson (Back), Joelinton Apolinário Lima (Thigh), Harvey Barnes (Toe), Alexander Isak (Unknown), Nick Pope (Dislocated shoulder), Matt Targett (Hamstring), Joe Willock (Achilles tendon) and Callum Wilson (Calf) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Rob Edwards has a number of injury concerns in his Luton squad to contend with: Mads Andersen (Calf), Tom Lockyer (Unknown), Marvelous Nakamba (Knee) and Fred Onyedinma (Muscle)
