The Hatters have enjoyed a bright start to the season, and put league leaders Norwich City to the sword with an eye-catching 3-1 win in midweek.

That result left Nathan Jones’ men 11th in the table, just four points off a play-off place.

For their part, Swansea suffered a disappointing 2-1 defeat at the hands of fellow promotion hopefuls Middlesbrough, and fell to seventh in the Championship standings.

But Prutton believes that the Swans will be able to get themselves back on track with a win on Saturday.

Speakng to Sky Sports News, he said: “Swansea will be looking to bounce back after their defeat at Middlesbrough in midweek.

"They don't have the biggest squad, and a few changes may have seen them lose a little bit of momentum in that one.

Luton were superb against Norwich, and what a joy it was to see home fans celebrate goals scored by their side at Kenilworth Road in midweek.

"This is a big test for them, though. I have to tip the Swans.”

Prutton predicts a 2-1 Swansea win.

Luton enjoyed mixed fortunes against the Swans last season.

The Hatters were beaten 1-0 in December thanks to a late strike from Andre Ayew, but fared much better in the reverse fixture at the Liberty Stadium.

James Collins provided the winner in 1-0 win to secure all three points, and to help Luton climb off the bottom of the Championship table.
