Oxford United vs Luton Town Prediction and Betting Tips | January 21st 2025

Oxford United will host Luton Town at Kassam Stadium on Tuesday night in another round of the 2024-25 EFL Championship campaign. The hosts will hope to continue their recently found form in the league and further boost their chances of staying up this season.

Oxford United picked up a remarkable 1-0 win over Blackburn Rovers on Saturday to mark their fourth win in their last six league games after losing eight of the previous 10. New manager Gary Rowett is yet to lose in his five league matches so far and will hope to extend that run against a side in much worse form.

The hosts currently sit in 15th place in the English second division and could potentially make a push for playoff qualification if they can maintain their current form.

Luton picked up a point in a goalless draw against Preston North End last time out after losing four league matches on the bounce. Despite the visitors sitting in second-to-the-last place, they are only two points behind 18th-placed Stoke City and will attempt to push out of the relegation zone in the coming weeks.

Oxford United vs Luton Town Prediction

Both sides are closely matched going into Tuesday's fixture. However, the Yellows have an edge thanks to their home advantage, having only lost three of 13 league games played at Kassam Stadium this season.

Luton are without a win in their last six matches, with five of those games ending in defeat. They have only picked up points twice on the road all season and could lose this week.
