Luton look set to bow out from the Premier League on Sunday afternoon when they welcome Fulham to Kenilworth Road.
Barring an incredible turn of events, more specifically overturning a 12-goal swing, the Hatters are poised to drop down to the Championship after just one season in the top flight.
A 3-1 defeat at the hands of West Ham last weekend effectively sealed Luton’s fate, but Rob Edwards and his charges can hold their heads high after running the top teams close.
For Fulham, this has been a largely unforgettable campaign, and a win won’t secure a top-half finish this time around.
Marco Silva has no fresh injury concerns to contend with, but he will be aiming to sign off this term with three points.
But how will things pan out? I’ve scurried over to the betting markets and unearthed a couple of value tips for you to ponder over.
Fulham to complete league double over Luton
Although Fulham haven’t hit the highs of last season, they will want to put a show on for their travelling fans.
A demoralising run of just one win from their past eight league games indicates a side which has been in a tailspin, and in their previous outing against Manchester City, they were torn from limb to limb in a 4-0 hammering.
Luton, similarly, have been out of sorts, and their last victory which arrived in April, came at home to Bournemouth, who are four points and three spots ahead of Fulham in the table.
Perhaps it is worth noting that Fulham have won their two previous clashes with Luton by an aggregate scoreline of 8-0.
A chance to wrap up a league double over Luton is an eminent possibility, even though Fulham have not won their final league game in any of the past six seasons (D1 L5).
Shoving that stat to one side, for my first pick, I’m siding with Fulham to win to nil.
Should you like the sound of this, then Paddy Power has priced up odds of 9/2.
Rodrigo Muniz to bag a double
Despite growing transfer interest in Rodrigo Muniz, there has been no rush by Fulham to tie him down to a new and improved contract.
The Brazilian, who has hit nine league goals this term, has profited in the second half of the campaign.
Although he has netted just once in his past five league outings, Muniz could put Luton to the sword on Sunday.
To accompany my opening tip of Fulham to win to nil, I’m swayed by Muniz to grab a double, and he’s currently priced at a short, if not intriguing, 6/1 price with William Hill to do so.
