Chelsea will start off their League Cup campaign in the second round at home against League One side Luton Town. This match will mark the first meeting between the sides since December 2023 in the Premier League. For the third time in five years these teams clash in a cup game, and like the first two, our prediction backs a high-scoring game.
Chelsea, under new manager Xabi Alonso, had a winning start to the season, beating Fulham 3-2 on the road. There were still key defensive struggles seen in their game, which the Blues will hope to address against this attacking Luton side.
Chelsea won both previous cup meetings between these two, 3-1 and 3-2 in the FA Cup.
Luton Town are becoming too accustomed to letting their leads slip before responding. It has happened in the past two matches, first against Reading and most recently against Notts County.
They managed a 4-3 comeback win against Reading but could only draw 2-2 with Notts County. While their fighting spirit is admirable, their defending has been shambolic, and they could be punished at Stamford Bridge.
Jack Wilshere’s men kept their only clean sheet in the first round, as they beat Gillingham 3-0.

Our Chelsea vs Luton Town Prediction
Even though Chelsea are expected to rest players and dish out full debuts in this encounter, they remain the favorites. The fact that they may field a weakened side could well give Luton the chance to up their levels and match the Blues.
In the two cup encounters they’ve had, Chelsea emerged tops but not without struggle, as Luton also got on the score sheet. Both sides haven’t shown much solidity in defence, and we could see a case of goals on both sides. Our prediction for Chelsea v Luton Town is for Chelsea to win & BTTS.
