It’s been hard to keep track of all the transfer activity at Stamford Bridge. A seemingly endless procession of players have joined the club in 2023, but whilst the financial outlay has been vast, it has not yet translated into results on the pitch.

After a solid 2-2 draw with Liverpool in their opening game, Chelsea succumbed to a 3-1 defeat at West Ham that was eerily reminiscent of come of their defeats from last season. It is already clear that manager Mauricio Pochettino will have his work cut out turning his expensively assembled squad into Premier League challenges.

It may seem slightly unfair to say that Luton Town are already in a Premier League relegation scrap, but their squad looks to be somewhat short of the standard required in the top flight. An opening day thrashing at Brighton did little to alter that view and it is hard to see the Hatters gaining enough points to avert a return to the Championship.

Whilst this is the sides’ first league meeting since 1991, they have played each other three times in the FA Cup since then, with Chelsea winning on all three occasions. Luton won the last league meeting between the teams, but overall Chelsea hold a 19-14 head-to-head advantage.

Chelsea are priced at 1/4 with leading sports betting apps.  If you think an upset could be in store, Luton Town can be backed at 12/1, with the draw at 23/4

We can’t argue with the bookies on this one. Despite being winless, they have performed pretty well in both of their games so far. A big win looks just around the corner, and that could spell bad news for Luton.

Of course, 1/4 is hardly the most appealing price for a Premier League game. So instead, it is worth considering the evens on Chelsea winning to nil. And if you’re feeling more adventurous, 12/1 on a 4-0 home win looks a very fair price.
