Our Three Predictions For MK Dons vs Accrington Stanley

  • Prediction 1 – Over 1.5 goals in the first half – 71/50
  • Prediction 2 – Both sides to score – 73/100
  • Prediction 3 – MK Dons to win – 33/50

First Prediction For MK Dons vs Accrington Stanley – Over 1.5 goals in the first half – 71/50

MK Dons tend to be fast starters and that was evident in their last game with Joe Tomlinson scoring just two minutes in through a penalty. The Dons led Morecambe 2-1 by half-time and barring their loss to Port Vale have scored at least once in the first 45 minutes. Accrington’s decisive goal against Barrow came eight minutes after the start through Shaun Whalley. Three of their last five matches have seen The Owd Reds score in the first half.

Second Prediction For MK Dons vs Accrington Stanley – Both sides to score – 73/100

Both MK Dons and Accrington Stanley are averaging over a goal a game in their previous five fixtures, with John Doolan’s side scoring seven and the home side scoring 11 in the same period. However, Milton Keynes have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last nine matches. With Stanley finding a new hero in Burnley loanee Dara Costelloe, they do have some threat to take that unwanted record going into double digits.

Third Prediction For MK Dons vs Accrington Stanley – MK Dons to win – 33/50

Neither side have managed to claim an away win in this fixture and with MK Dons seemingly finding their footing are likely to continue this streak for another game. It was a great win for them last time out against Morecambe and that should boost their confidence coming into this clash. This will be a contest of whoever scores the most, with MK Dons conceding 18 shots to bottom team Morecambe over the weekend and perhaps fortunate to only have one go into Tom McGill’s net.

Full Preview Of The Game: Last Results And Head-To-Head

Accrington Stanley have finally found their footing in this season and have pushed themselves out of the relegation spots as a result. They won a game against Morecambe which was so pivotal to both sides’ fortunes going towards the festive period and since them have continued to pick up points. Despite a loss in their next game against Tranmere Rovers, the Lancashire side have won their last two on the bounce against Gillingham and over Barrow in the early kick-off on Saturday. MK Dons also claimed victory in their last match, beating Morecambe on the road. They have still done well to secure points in four of their last five games, their only blip coming against league leaders Port Vale last weekend. Just three points separate the sides going into this clash, but due to Milton Keynes’ superior goal difference, it would require a big swing for Stanley to overtake Scott Lindsey’s side. Both sides were relegated from League One in the same 2022/23 season so there is a lengthy recent history between these two. Last season saw each team take a win at home, with a 93rd-minute Joe Tomlinson goal securing The Dons three points in their hunt for play-off football. This contest could see a bumper attendance with MK Dons recently introducing discounted ticket prices, with this being the first game those reduced rates are in effect.
