1st prediction for MK Dons vs Crewe Alexandra: MK Dons to win – 8/11
This is a huge game at the top of the table and a tough one to predict but the home side will probably edge it. The two sides’ actually started the season in opposite positions to what they are now. Dons started incredibly slowly, while Crewe came flying out of the blocks. However, recent runs mean the home side are pushing for an automatic promotion place while Crewe have fallen out of the play-off spots. Both sides know a win with results going their way will get them into these places, so stakes are high. That being said, with their good run of form and home advantage, MK Dons are probably favourites here.
2nd prediction for MK Dons vs Crewe Alexandra: Over 2.5 goals in the game – 19/20
This is likely to be an entertaining game with plenty of goals.MK Dons have been fantastic going forward and find themselves in a rich vein of form with plenty of momentum. They are among the league’s top scorers with 23 goals, but with 12 conceded they are beatable. Crewe have also got decent goalscoring statistics, with 16 scored and 13 conceded. Their recent form has seen them drop out of the play-off spots but it’s early days yet and their ability to score will certainly help them. In the context of this game, they have a tough task on their hands. MK Dons’ talent and momentum means they are likely to get a result, but don’t count Crewe out. With the players they have, they too will fancy themselves to get on the scoresheet.
3rd prediction for MK Dons vs Crewe Alexandra: Both teams to score – 9/10
This is a prediction which leads on from the previous one. MK Dons look unbelievable in attack while being a bit shaky at times, while Crewe are good if unremarkable in both departments. The home side have the best goal difference in the league, but they know they will have a challenge here and will probably concede at least one.. The away side started the season well but dropped off slightly though a win in their last game could mean a resurgence. Even when they struggled they were still decent in front of goal. All in all, expect an exciting game on Saturday.
