First Prediction For MK Dons vs Port Vale – Both Teams To Score – 1.60
Both sides have scored in each of their last five games, with Milton Keynes’ run extending to their 3-0 loss away to bitter rivals AFC Wimbledon on September 14. Vale have only failed to score twice in all competitions this season, being held to a 0-0 by Tranmere Rovers and their humbling 4-0 defeat against Barrow. They have both conceded 12 goals in their opening ten games and have averaged at least 1.3 goals per match.
Second Prediction For MK Dons vs Port Vale – MK Dons To Score First – 2.39
The Dons have been the quicker starters in their matches and have opened the scoring in their last six contests. Holding onto the lead has been the bigger issue for the club, losing six potential points from winning positions as well as losing in their EFL Trophy match away to Colchester United. The run of scoring first also stretches to eight of their last ten games, the only blips coming against Wimbledon and in their televised loss away to Salford City.
Third Prediction For MK Dons vs Port Vale – Match To End In A Draw – 3.35
There is not very much separating these two sides at the moment so a draw would be a likely outcome in this contest. MK Dons having the home advantage could be a deciding factor though and have been the more prolific side in front of goal. Both teams have drawn three of their opening 10 matches, with two coming in their last four league for Port Vale, whilst Milton Keynes have drawn three in the same amount of matches.
