West Ham vs Luton: Prediction, kick-off time, team news, TV, live stream, h2h results, odds today

West Ham host Luton in what could be an emotional afternoon in the Premier League today.

For the Hammers, David Moyes will take charge of his final home game after an illustrious second spell at the club which has stretched to nearly five years, featured a European trophy and multiple top-seven finishes.

One more will prove beyond West Ham for now but a win on Saturday will likely seal their spot inside the top half for a third year in the last four.

For the Hatters, a defeat would all-but spell the end of their Premier League survival hopes.

Luton sit three points off Nottingham Forest, who play Chelsea in the evening kick-off, and know their worse goal difference means they have to close that gap before the final day to have any chance of pulling off an unlikely late escape act.

Date, kick-off time and venue

West Ham vs Luton is scheduled for a 3pm BST kick-off today on Saturday May 11, 2024.

West Ham vs Luton prediction

Moyes will hope his West Ham side can kick back into gear for his London Stadium farewell and they will face a very creaky Luton defence.

However, the Hammers have been struggling themselves of late and the do-or-die nature of the away side’s situation must be considered. It’s tough to call, but there should be goals.

West Ham to win, 3-2.
