Manager Rob Edwards is hoping to pull off a surprise win against the strong Tottenham Hotspur. This is because they are playing for their lives. Luton knows that they need to start winning games if they want to stay in the Premier League. This could give them extra motivation to play hard against Tottenham. Putting up an impressive performance against teams like Liverpool and Manchester United shows that they are not intimidated by playing in bigger stadiums against tougher teams.

Still, Tottenham Hotspur’s performances this season can’t be overlooked and a lot of the credit goes to some brilliant individual performances from players like Son Heung-min and James Maddison. 

Elsewhere, Cristian Romero has impressed in defense with composure and strength. His aerial dominance and reading of the game make him a nightmare for most English Premier League attackers. 

Despite the top-notch players possessed by Tottenham, Luton still has some arsenal to pull up a threat to Spurs. They have a talented striker. Elijah Adebayo has been a bright spot for Luton this season. He has scored some important goals, and he could be the difference-maker against Tottenham.

The last time both sides met, Spurs edged their hosts, Luton, by a 1-0 scoreline

But Luton’s fighting spirit has shown that they can be dangerous, especially when they’re playing at home. So, it won’t be a thing of surprise if they give Tottenham a tough game. Expect a dominant display from Spurs, but prepare for the possibility of a late Luton goal that throws a spanner in the works. If Luton wins, it could be a turning point in their fight to stay in the Premier League.
