Luton Town will be hosting Chelsea in the early kickoff match of the Premier League this Saturday at Kenilworth Road.

Noni Madueke scored a last minute winner to help Chelsea overcome Crystal Palace 2 – 1 at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday, in yet another unconvincing display. This was the Blue’s third successive home Premier League win, but only their sixth in 2023. They now sit in 10^th on the table but it’s worth noting that they are only above Wolverhampton Wanderers and Bournemouth on goal difference.

Luton Town marched to an engrossing 3-2 win over Sheffield United on Boxing Day. The players made history at Bramall Lane, as they made it back-to-back wins in the competition for the first time ever.

The Hatters are within touching distance of Everton, Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest with a game in hand. Victory on Saturday would see the hosts make it three top-flight successes on the bounce for the first time since December 1991. The last time these two sides met was in August and Chelsea won that game 3 nil at Stamford Bridge.
