Chelsea vs Luton simulated to get a score prediction for Premier League clash

After a winless start, Chelsea will be looking to pick up their first three points of the season when they face newly-promoted Luton Town on Friday night.

Chelsea's first away game of the campaign was one to forget, with the Blues falling to a 3-1 defeat against West Ham last weekend. Moises Caicedo made his debut for Mauricio Pochettino's side and despite giving away a penalty, it was good to finally see the Ecuadorian in Chelsea colours.
