Our prediction for this Championship match:
Luton Town and Coventry City go head to head at Kenilworth Road in the Championship round 37. The Hatters suffered yet another dip in form, but despite losing to both Norwich City and Swansea City in the previous two league fixtures, they are on the right track to secure the Championship survival. Luton are eyeing their seven home win of the season, but keep in mind that all Eunan O’Kane, Sonny Bradley, Dan Potts, and Tom Lockyer are likely to miss the match with injuries.
The Sky Blues, on the other hand, aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Derby County. Coventry City are desperate to escape the danger zone in the Championship standings, but they should be happy with one point from the midweek clash. Jodi Jones should be the only absentee in the away team.

Simon Sluga is a Croatian goalkeeper who plays for Luton Town in the Championship. Born in Porec on March 17, 1993, the 191-cm-tall shot-stopper started his youth career at hometown club Jadran Porec before joining famous Croatian club Rijeka.
