Luton and Everton meet in the Premier League round 36 curtain-raiser at Kenilworth Road. Despite losing their last three games in the national championship and allowing a total of twelve goals in those contests, the Hatters are undoubtedly capable of making life difficult for Everton at home. Luke Berry, an accomplished midfielder, is contending for a starting XI spot as Issa Kabore, Chiedozie Ogbene, Amarii Bell, Jacob Brown, Dan Potts, and Mads Juel Andersen continue to recuperate.
In contrast, the Toffees have delivered outstanding performances throughout the season finale. Everton is on a three-game winning streak at home, but a home victory should be considered, given their dismal away record in the 2023/2024 season. Luton are more motivated to secure this victory than Everton, who lead the relegation zone by eleven points. Dominic Calvert-Lewin is expected to return to action on Friday, whereas Lewis Dobbin, Seamus Coleman, and All Beto remain in the treatment room.
Head To Head And Previous Matches
In their most recent match, Luton suffered a 2-1 loss at Molineux Stadium to Wolves. In this Premier League match, Carlton Morris scored despite Luton having taken a total of four corners and attempting six shots on target.

Everton Town was defeated 2-1 at Goodison Park in the most recent meeting between the two clubs.
In their previous two contests, Luton Town has recorded two victories. Harrogate has not achieved a victory and has not been involved in any draws.
Our Predictions
Luton to win
Alongside Burnley and Nottingham Forest, Luton's struggle to avoid relegation appears almost certain to come down to the wire. Still, they could earn the most valuable of three points against Everton, whose Premier League status appeared to be secured for another season.
Fifteen of Luton's 25 points this season have been scored at Kenilworth Road; with two of their final three matches taking place in front of their supporters, they must once again fortify their home field.
Although Everton have secured four of their last five victories (all of which ended in defeat), these triumphs have occurred at Goodison Park, and their away form has been considerably less impressive, with their last league victory on the road occurring in December at Burnley.
With a first-ever Premier League victory at Everton in September, the Hatters have a positive association with this opponent. This matchup will be regarded as the most favorable of their remaining matches, so the hosts will likely exert every effort possible to secure a victory over the Toffees.
Both teams to score
In fourteen of Luton's previous fifteen matches across all competitions, both teams scored. The Hatters have scored at least one goal in thirteen consecutive Premier League home contests. This is sufficient for us to pursue the idea of both teams scoring.
