Baggies to win it
If you look purely at the form book then you'd never back West Brom to win this game but that is exactly the prediction we are making. West Brom have won just one of their last five games whilst Luton have only lost one of their previous five outings. Of course, Steve Bruce wasn't manager in three of those five West Brom games we reference and whilst the former Newcastle boss is winless from his first two games they've been up against good opposition in Sheffield United and Blackburn. Luton's good run came to an abrupt end last time out as they were smashed by lowly Birmingham; that loss and green shoots in West Brom make us think this is the time for Bruce to grab his first Baggies win. The last five head to head meetings have all seen West Brom win too.
At least one side will fail to score
Yeah, when these two lock horns on Saturday we can envisage at least one of them keeping a clean sheet. Luton have only seen one of their last five matches end where both teams have registered on the scoresheet whilst West Brom can't even say that; each of their last five have seen at least one ‘nil' and their last league game that saw both teams bag goals came back on January 2nd.

Luton vs West Brom: It's predicted lineup time
It would have been hard to dream up a scenario where Luton were just one point behind West Brom with a game in hand earlier in the season yet here we are. Surely though, it is still the Baggies that have the best shot at making the top six come May.
Luton Predicted Lineup
As a season as a whole this year has been really strong from Luton and they could well still make a charge for the top six. Results like their 3-0 stuffing last time out won't help with those ambitions though and it's piled pressure onto this fixture, which is much tougher than the previous one – on paper at least.
Predicted lineup – Shea, Naismith, Burke, Lockyer, Bell, Ruddock, Lansbury, Campbell, Bree, Adebayo, Cornick
West Brom Predicted Lineup
West Brom are yet to win and yet to find the net since Steve Bruce arrived as manager. Despite that, there were plenty of positives in their last game against Blackburn. Now though the Baggies need to see points on the board as well – starting here.
Predicted lineup – Johnstone, Furlong, Ajayi, Clarke, Townsend, Molumby, Mowatt, Robinson, Reach, Grant, Carroll
