Chris Sutton has made his prediction ahead of Nottingham Forest's Premier League game against Luton Town on Saturday.

Steve Cooper's side will be looking to collect a first victory since the 2nd of September when they defeated Chelsea 1-0 at Stamford Bridge.

If Forest are to beat Rob Edwards' side, they'll have to do so without a number of first-team players.

Cooper confirmed yesterday, that Gonzalo Montiel, Felipe, Taiwo Awoniyi, Danilo and Serge Aurier will all miss the game at the City Ground through injury.

However, Moussa Niakhate will be available again after serving his one-match suspension against Crystal Palace.

"I like what Luton are doing this season. I don't want to patronise them but they deserve some credit, because they are making a scrap of it.

"The Hatters will probably feel they should have got something out of 10-man Tottenham before the international break, and lost very late to Burnley earlier in the same week, but they are always being competitive and carry a threat even when they finish up empty-handed.

"Again, it's a game Luton will feel they can get something out of but Forest's home form is very strong and they have got plenty of matchwinners in their squad."

Sutton's prediction: 2-1

A great chance for Cooper and Forest Although no encounter in the Premier League is an easy one, Saturday afternoon poses a great opportunity for Cooper's side to collect three more points.

Luton are predicted to suffer relegation by many this season, with the Hatters currently outside the relegation places on goal difference.

With Forest having a good home record under Cooper, you would expect the Reds to gain all three points.
