West Bromwich Albion host relegation-battling Luton on the final day of 2024-25 Sky Bet Championship season.
Victory could see West Brom finish ninth if Middlesbrough lose at Coventry by two goals or more, whilst Luton need to win to secure their survival although a draw or defeat might be enough if Hull fail to better their result.
Team News
Josh Maja could make an unlikely return for West Brom after a leg injury has kept the Swede sidelined since mid-January.
Tammer Bany (hamstring) remains absent.
Luton will have Liam Walsh available after his red card in their home win against Coventry was rescinded upon appeal.
Alfie Doughty (hamstring), Jacob Brown and Tom Lockyer (both ankle) remain sidelined.
When is Kick-Off?
West Brom host Luton at The Hawthorns on Saturday 3 May at 12:30pm BST, live on Sky Sports Football in the UK.
Stat Attack
- West Brom have lost just one of their last seven league meetings against Luton (W4, D2, L1).
- Luton have won just one of their last five league visits to West Brom (W1, D1, L3).
- West Brom have kept clean sheets in two of their last three home games against Luton.
- No West Brom player has contributed to more league goals this season than Tom Fellows (15), having scored twice and created 13 assists in 44 appearances..
- No Luton player has scored more league goals this season than Carlton Morris (8).
Prediction
With nothing really left to play for other than a top-ten finish, West Brom can afford to relax coming into this game but I do expect them to try and produce a more polished end product than they managed at Cardiff last weekend.
Luton meanwhile are coming into this game needing a win to secure their survival and with three wins on the bounce, confidence will be high especially after a late smash-and-grab winner over Coventry but they must shake off their poor away form in this fixture if they’re to stay up.
Although West Brom will initially give them a strong fight, I do think that Luton will ultimately have the edge in motivation to snatch the win.
Prediction: WBA 1-2 Luton
