Match Facts
Luton won their last home league game against Chelsea, beating them 2-0 in December 1991. However, they lost the last time they hosted the Blues in any competition, going down 3-2 in an FA Cup tie in March 2022.
The home side has won eight of the last 10 league meetings between Luton Town and Chelsea, with the exceptions being a 3-0 away win for Chelsea in December 1989, and a 3-3 draw at Stamford Bridge in April 1991.
In each of Luton’s last three top-flight campaigns before this season, their final game of the calendar year was at home against Chelsea. They lost 3-0 in 1989, before 2-0 wins in both 1990 and 1991.
Chelsea haven’t lost their final league game in any of the last 11 calendar years (W7 D4), since a 3-1 home loss against Aston Villa in 2011.
Luton have won their last two Premier League games, as many as in their first 16 this season. They last won three consecutive top-flight matches in December 1991, the third game of which was against Chelsea.
Chelsea have lost each of their last four Premier League away games, their longest losing run on the road since a run of five between October and December 2000 under Claudio Ranieri.
Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino has taken charge of more away games against promoted teams in the Premier League without losing than any other manager (20), with 18 of those 20 games ending in victories for his side (D2).
Luton’s Andros Townsend has either scored (1) or assisted (2) in each of his last three Premier League games at Kenilworth Road. Only once previously has he been directly involved in a goal in four consecutive home appearances in the competition, doing so between May and September 2021 (4).
Raheem Sterling has been directly involved in 20 goals in his last 19 Premier League games against promoted sides (15 goals, five assists), including nine in eight games for his current club Chelsea (six goals, three assists). He scored two of the Blues’ three goals in this season’s reverse fixture against Luton.
Luton’s Ross Barkley could become the third player in 2023 to score against Chelsea in the Premier League having previously played for them in the competition, after Willian in January and Emerson in February. Barkley has played nine times against Chelsea in the competition without scoring to date.
