Here are some of our writers’ predictions for the game.

James Ray

“Bradford City passed their first day test with flying colours against a team widely expected to fight for promotion, and they face another here in Luton Town.

If BCAFC are to succeed this season, their home form will be critical, and another victory over a top team will boost their confidence tremendously. “I do think the Hatters are a level above Wycombe, so this will be a tough game.

Bloomfield’s squad is still full of Championship-caliber players, and against a newly promoted team, they should be aiming for victory.

“I wouldn’t be surprised if LTFC maintained their perfect record, but I’ll back the hosts to earn another point. I’ll say this ends at 1-1. Prediction: Bradford City 1–1 Luton Town.
