MK Dons travel to face Tranmere this weekend as two of the most in-form teams go head-to-head. Earlier this season, the Dons picked up a 1-0 victory when the sides met.
Tranmere
The Superwhites have been on fire since December, winning five of their last seven matches in the league. This run has seen them climb up the table to 16th with a tally of 33 points. Connor Jennings has been the standout player of this run, scoring three and assisting two in his last five.
Tranmere have significantly improved in the final third, scoring 42 goals in 27 matches. However, they’ve also been leaky at times, conceding 40. Last time out, they held their own against Barrow but were narrowly defeated 1-0.
MK Dons
Come the end of the season, Mk Dons will be challenging for a promotion spot. The first half of the season couldn’t have gone much better, and they currently sit eighth after just 24 matches. It hasn’t always been an easy ride, with the side scoring 39 goals and conceding 31, but they seem to find a way to get over the line.
Unfortunately for the Dons, they suffered their first League Two defeat in nine matches last time out, as they were beaten 3-0 on the road to Doncaster. The visitors dominated the ball but struggled to create any clear opportunities.
Verdict?
This game will be decided by the finest of margins, with both sides believing that three points are achievable. The two teams will get opportunities in attack, but not much will separate them.
The final prediction is Tranmere 1-1 MK Dons.
