Luton Town vs Aston Villa pre-match thread

hope they're staying at a good hotel i can only think of 1 in Luton

Doubt it will be in Luton directly, but might be in one of the Spa and Golf ones in the County. They might even do a London hotel.

Luton Hoo possibly or might be the Grove not far away

The Luton Hoo is over priced for what it is - all fart and no shit

Why can't they stop in a Premier inn

[UK Redsox]

Travelodge just of Junction 11 of the M1. That'll be the one

I find the Premier Inns are more expensive than other hotels, and the service is shit these days.

And you worry that the person knocking the room door is Lenny Henry and his ancient jokes.

the one near the airport on the flight path looks nicer

Anybody want a pair of home tix in same stand as the villa fans? Will put message on tix section. 

[Bad English]

Tix? Tsk!

Premier Inn, where nothing is Premier but the price. And those TV adverts with their frequency of occurrence and that wanky little tune make me want to put my foot through the TV.

[Baldy]

1-3 to the boys in C&B.

[PaulWinch again]

If Luton maintain their man to man approach it can make the game tricky in terms of the aggression they bring, so we’ll have to win that physical battle. But it is also a great opportunity for Bailey, Tielemans and other creative players to run wild as well. I think we’ll score plenty.

[coreyfeldman]

Fully expecting JJ to score today and set him on a nice run for us at just the right time

[Clampy]

I reckon Ramsey is due a goal as well. If we play our own game, we should have too much for them.

1-3. Watkins, Ramsey and Luiz. Steve Foster for them.

[Martyn Smith]

I am going for the kind of close, hard fought, dirty win that truly great teams know how to grind out when needed. 2-1

[coreyfeldman]

A direct goal from a corner wouldn't go amiss here either, must be due one of them

[Footy-Vill]

The Ross Barkley derby.
Well I hear Luton have injuries in central defence, and I believe Watkins might score another brace or a hat trick ! Haaland I heard scored 5 goals against them other day.
Only Sheffield United and Burnley have conceded more set piece goals than us, thus this is Luton's threat which defence must be aware of. They also love getting crosses into the box.

If we compare managers, Emery is Elite and outstanding, and Edwards is a rookie coach who won't be able to out tacticalise us. I believe Villa score three or four goals to them possibly getting one, with the hope of keeping a clean sheet.

I honestly believe we'll crush these guys today today by a 3 goals margin.

Play Martinez, Bailey, Moreno, Douglas Luiz, and Watkins in this one and potentially rest when three goals up, rotating some of these for Thursday with four games in ten days coming up.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Rogers, Digne, Zaniolo, Diaby, and possibly even Iroegbunam and Kesler be afforded minutes.
