Fulham is determined to halt their dry spell of three matches without a win as they welcome Luton Town, the new arrivals in the Premier League, to Craven Cottage this Saturday.
Fulham has been considered a "yo-yo" club in recent years, consistently bouncing between the Championship and the Premier League. However, they shook off that label last season when they exceeded all expectations, finishing in a respectable 10th position with 52 points. As for the current campaign, survival will be this year as well - especially after Aleksandar Mitrovic left the club and moved to the Saudi side Al-Hilal - will be the priority of the club from Craven Cottage who currently have four points on their account after four rounds.
No matter what unfolds, Luton will cherish every minute of this season, as they face off against England's elite teams for the first time in 31 years, courtesy of their heart-stopping penalty shootout win (6-5) over Coventry in the Championship playoff final this May. Considering that they have the weakest squad on paper, it seems that even the biggest fan of the Hatters is not very optimistic about the survival of the beloved club in the competition with the giants. Life in the new environment hasn't been smooth sailing for Luton, as they remain without a point following three Premier League fixtures.
Fulham vs Luton Town Betting Tips: Fulham to Win
A harsh 1-5 defeat at Guardiola's City in the last match before the international break extended Fulham's winless run to three games in the top flight, but there is no doubt Marco Silva's men will be looking to regain some much-needed confidence this Saturday. At their Craven Cottage come new boys Luton who appear to have lost their way in the Premier League, having yet to break the deadlock, losing all three games and conceding nine goals in the process.
With a lackluster squad, the small Bedfordshire club will really need a miracle to avoid relegation from the elite division this season. Furthermore, we are not sure they can do anything away from home, especially knowing that they faced heavy defeats against Brighton (1-4) and Chelsea (0-3) in their opening two EPL visits. Although the lack of Aleksandar Mitrovic in attack is felt, we believe that Fulham have enough strength and quality without him to leave all three points on their turf against incompetent Luton.

Fulham team news
Alex Iwobi, the recent addition to Fulham's squad, arrived at the club with a tendon injury suffered during his second appearance of the season while playing for Everton. Nevertheless, with the Nigerian now back in training, he could be in line for his debut this Saturday.
Following the collapse of his transfer to Bayern Munich, Joao Palhinha is set to reclaim his usual spot in the midfield, while Tom Cairney's chances of playing appear slim after he hobbled off the field only 15 minutes into the Man. City match.
