They sit 19th and two points above the Sky Bet Championship relegation zone but things could have been so different if their main striker had taken his chances.

Adebayo has scored just one goal from chances equating to 4.61 expected goals (xG), coming from 24 attempts, 22 of which have been inside the box.

A midweek home defeat by leaders Sunderland was bittersweet as Luton played perhaps the best they have all season, but once again found themselves on the wrong side of fine margins, including a controversial disallowed goal. The biggest positive was Adebayo scoring for the first time since May.

At 3/1 TO SCORE ANYTIME against a Coventry team who have struggled just as much as Luton, sitting two points and two places beneath them and in the relegation zone, we should back Adebayo to now be up and running and return to the form that saw him score 10 times in 32 Premier League games last season.

Aston Villa vs Bournemouth

Kick-off time: 15:00 BST, Saturday
Home 17/20 | Draw 11/4 | Away 11/4

ASTON VILLA have made their best start to a Premier League season since 1998, won all three of their Champions League matches - including becoming the first team to beat Bayern Munich in the group stage since 2017- and kept three straight clean sheets at home.

They're only league defeat at Villa Park since early March came in their opening home game of this season when they lost 2-0 to Arsenal, a match they really ought to have won on the balance of play.

Their bench for the 2-0 win over Bologna on Tuesday demonstrated the squad depth Unai Emery now has at his disposal, with Ollie Watkins, Boubacar Kamara, Jacob Ramsey, Jayden Philogene, Emi Buendia, Ross Barkley, Lucas Digne, Tyrone Mings and Matty Cash all substitutes.

Bournemouth are a solid enough top-flight team, but a little too much may be being read into their home win over 10-man Arsenal last weekend.

The Cherries have lost three of their last four away games, failing to score in defeats at West Ham, Liverpool and Leicester.

Generally they have been strong defensively though, conceding only 10 league goals this season. That, combined with Villa's growing maturity and subsequent controlled performances under Emery has me keen to back VILLA TO WIN AND UNDER 2.5 GOALS at what is a huge 9/2, a bump from the 7/2 we'd be able to build ourselves as a manual double.

I'll be honest though, the 10/11 about ASTON VILLA TO WIN is plenty good enough, it's just Jake has pinched that so I looked for something a tad different.

Wycombe vs Leyton Orient

Kick-off time: 15:00 BST, Saturday
Home 5/6 | Draw 23/10 | Away 14/5

WYCOMBE lost only one of their final 11 League One games last season, winning four of their last five, and have carried that form into the current campaign.

Matt Bloomfield's side sit third and really pushed Aston Villa in the Carabao Cup, but somehow have still managed to stay under the radar.

Much of that is down to them losing their first two games, away at Wrexham and at home to Birmingham (both 3-2) - the only sides above them in the table.

Unbeaten in nine since, winning seven including their last three, we should back them TO WIN at home against 20th-placed Leyton Orient.

Although they battled to a 1-0 home win over Rotherham in a keenly-fought midweek match, that was their first win in six and ended a three-game losing streak.

Notts County vs Harrogate

Kick-off time: 15:00 BST, Saturday
Home 1/2 | Draw 3/1 | Away 17/4

ALASSANA JATTA has scored in 10 of Notts County's past 17 games; no mean feat considering he's only started 14 matches and made six substitute appearances since joining from Danish club Viborg at the end of the January transfer window.

It's very much worth backing him TO SCORE ANYTIME for the visit of one of League Two's weaker sides Harrogate Town.

Harrogate have conceded five goals twice already this season, and let three in on two further occasions.

Third-placed Notts have scored at least twice nine different times in just 15 games.

Odds correct at 1630 BST (24/10/24)
