Mount or Plain?

Some see a major discrepancy in the fact that the Lord’s Prayer appears in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5:1–7:29) but not in the Sermon on the Plain (Luke 6:17-7:1). What’s the problem? These are probably two different events. Jesus didn’t have to (and probably didn’t) say exactly the same time every time He spoke.

"And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:" Matthew 5:1

"And he came down with them, and stood in the plain, and the company of his disciples, and a great multitude of people out of all Judaea and Jerusalem, and from the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, which came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases; " Luke 6:17
