A Sports Betting Pick by ArmchairPunter
Football : England: League One
Venue: Vale Park
Saturday 28th February 2026, 1500hrs (GMT)
Former Northampton Town manager Jon Brady inflicted revenge upon his old club as he oversaw a valuable Port Vale 1-0 win away from home against The Cobblers in midweek but Saturday afternoon’s hosts still remain bottom of the League One table.
Nevertheless, there may be just a hint of revival in the making for Port Vale as they had previously collected a vital point by way of a 1-1 draw at home with Reading in their previous match in the domestic third tier and Brady’s bunch will be hoping for more success at Vale Park this Saturday.
With just one loss in their last four matches overall in the league which came in the shape of a 2-1 defeat away from home at Stevenage but also includes a previous 2-2 draw at home with Burton Albion, Port Vale will fancy their chances of getting something out of this upcoming encounter.
Luton Town occupy 10th place in the League One standings after The Hatters’ previous climb up the third tier table was scuppered in recent weeks following two defeats along with a draw.
Recent losses at the hands of Cardiff City and Wigan Athletic along with being held to a disappointing 1-1 draw at home by bottom half outfit Burton Albion have undone Luton Town’s earlier solid work which saw Jack Wilshire’s side capture back-to-back wins against Blackpool and Bradford City respectively.
However, both of these aforementioned victories were both achieved on home soil at Kenilworth Road, while results away from home continue to disappoint; indeed, The Hatters possess a below-par away record of 4-2-10 17/25 to date.
The Betting Verdict
Port Vale are unbeaten in their last two meetings with Luton Town (W1, D1) and the hosts look to have a decent chance of avoiding defeat here as well.
The Pick :
Port Vale 1-1 Luton Town
