Luton and Middlesbrough to Draw
With both teams securing their spots in the playoffs this season and likely too far behind Sheffield United to earn direct promotion to Premier League, this will be a duel that won't change much.
However, it could have an impact on the positioning ahead of the playoffs, so neither team will back off. That being said, a split of points could be a result that both teams can be pleased with, so our first Luton vs Middlesbrough prediction is for the match to end in a draw.
Both Teams to Score – Yes
We saw both teams score in the last four head-to-head duels between these two teams and with that in mind, our second Luton vs Middlesbrough prediction is for both teams to score in this game as well.
In addition to this, both teams have scored in 65% of all Middlesbrough matches in the league this season, while the same is true for 44% of all Luton games in Championship so far.

Luton – Middlesbrough Preview: Form, Team News, and Probable Lineups
You can find the latest news on both teams ahead of their duel right here, including the most likely Luton vs Middlesbrough lineups:
Luton
Staying unbeaten for eleven games is impressive in any league, especially in Championship, and that's exactly what Luton has done. In those eleven games, the team notched seven wins and four draws and they are currently third in the standings, one point ahead of their next opponent Middlesbrough. Reaching Sheffield Utd is still theoretically possible, but highly unlikely, so Luton will be trying to earn promotion through the playoffs.
When it comes to team news, Luton will once again be without injured Gabriel Osho, Reece Burke, Dan Potts, and Jack Walton.
Luton Predicted Lineup:
Horvath – Lockyer, Bradley, Bell – Drameh, Nakamba, Mpanzu, Doughty – Campbell – Morris, Woodrow
Middlesbrough
With three wins, one draw, and a couple of losses in the last six games in Championship, Middlesbrough has been a bit inconsistent in recent matches. Still, the team remains in the playoff zone, in the fourth place. In fact, their place in the playoffs is secured, but with a win over Luton they could secure better positioning ahead of it.
Meanwhile, Aaron Ramsey, Riley McGree, Dael Fry, and Matt Clarke are on the team's injury list at this time.
Middlesbrough Predicted Lineup:
Steffen – Smith, McNair, Lenihan, Giles – Howson, Hackney – Jones, Akpom, Forss – Archer
Starting Lineups

Teams usually announce their starting lineups one hour before the kickoff.
Player to Watch – Chuba Akpom
This is a duel between two playoff teams, so there are more than a few players that could stand out in this match. However, our player to watch is Chuba Akpom and for a great reason.
After all, the English forward has been amazing this season for Middlesbrough, scoring 28 goals in Championship, which makes him the league's top scorer. So, Luton will have to keep a close eye on Akpom in this duel.
