Morecambe vs MK Dons Predictions

• MK Dons have kept just one clean sheet in their last 13 matches.
• Both teams have scored in seven of Morecambe’s last eight league games.
• Both teams to score has landed in 10 of MK Don’s last 11 away games.

Shrimps in danger despite attacking threat

Morecambe come into this game with one of the league’s best attacks despite their lowly 19th position. The hosts have scored 29 goals in 18 league matches, with only six teams hitting the net more times including MK Dons.

The problem of course lies in defence with their back-line shipping the joint-third most goals in the division but the Shrimps have picked up four points from their last two matches following up their 2-1 win at fellow strugglers Fleetwood last weekend with a 2-2 draw against Charlton.

The hosts seem incapable of keeping a clean sheet but their offence will always give them a chance to get a result.

Dons making a push

MK Dons have surged up to eighth in recent weeks with three straight wins but that run came to an end as they lost 2-1 to Sheffield Wednesday in the week.

Their indifferent form away from home leaves them with a record of three wins, three draws and three defeats through nine matches.

Games so far in the league involving MK Dons have averaged 3.2 goals per game and they have scored an average of two goals per game on their travels this season in the league.

With just two clean sheets between them from their last 24 matches, I’m tipping both teams to score here and the Dons’ quality should shine through here and I fancy them to shade this one 2-1.
