Liverpool vs Luton (Premier League): 19:30, Wednesday 21st February 2024
Ahead of this week’s midweek matchup, we’ve highlighted some key points from past iterations of this fixture.
Form and history suggest an easy win for Liverpool, but they haven’t always been able to put away Luton in the past.
As evidenced by their 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture this season, the Hatters are capable of putting on a strong showing.
It would take an incredible performance for them to beat Liverpool at Anfield for the first time ever, though.
- Liverpool and Luton have played each other 35 times over the years.
- Liverpool have won almost half of these, with 16 victories.
- Luton meanwhile have beaten Liverpool six times, though not since 1991.
- There have been 13 draws in this fixture.
- The biggest winning margin in this matchup was when Liverpool won 6-0 in the First Division in 1983.
- Luton have never beaten Liverpool at Anfield.
- The most recent match between the two was a 1-1 draw at Kenilworth Road in November.
- In their last five meetings, the aggregate score is 14-6 to Liverpool.
Liverpool vs Luton Head To Head Record
Liverpool are sitting pretty at the top of the Premier League table. Their two defeats are the fewest of any side in the league, and they hammered Brentford 4-1 at the weekend.
Luton were unlucky in defeat last time out. They were beaten 2-1 at home by Manchester United in a game where all three goals were scored in the first 15 minutes.
Historically, it’s Liverpool who have won the most games in this fixture. But it’s been far from a whitewash, with Luton winning a decent amount of their own.
Luton Have Been A Tricky Opponent For Liverpool
While Liverpool are clearly expected to win on Wednesday, it’s not quite a formality.
Luton have frequently posed problems for Liverpool in the past, though they haven’t met often in the modern era.
But while Luton wins have been hard to come by, there have been almost as many draws as there have been Liverpool victories.
Could we therefore see Jurgen Klopp’s men drop vital points in the title race?
Anfield Factor Likely To Play Big Role
It’s true that Luton have made life difficult for Liverpool in the past, but they are yet to win at Anfield.
Of the 16 times Luton have visited the red half of Merseyside, there have been seven draws and nine Liverpool wins.
It therefore seems highly unlikely that this would be the season we see a change of pattern, with Liverpool top of the table and Luton scrapping for survival.
