Stevenage vs MK Dons Predictions

• Stevenage have won 1 of their last 14 games in League Two, and sit fourth-bottom of the Football League.
• League One promotion-chasers MK Dons have scored 31 goals in 16 league games, and registered back-to-back 4-1 wins in the league.
• Stevenage boss Alex Revell is under mounting pressure as the Boro fight for their Football League status.

Stevenage’s Struggles to Continue

Stevenage may have earned an unlikely FA Cup replay with a 2-2 draw at Stadium MK, but it has done little to part the clouds surrounding the Hertfordshire club. After a mid-table finish last year, the Boro find their Football League status threatened after a run of 1 win in 14 League Two matches, leaving manager Alex Revell, a former MK Dons player, under mounting pressure.

With a crunch clash with fellow strugglers Colchester United to come this weekend, troubled Stevenage’s attention may lie elsewhere ahead of Tuesday night’s replay at the Lamex Stadium, a dangerous prospect as one of League One’s most prolific sides come to town.

Back Goal-Happy Milton Keynes to Advance

MK Dons have made a strong start to their first league campaign under Liam Manning, playing some exhilarating football and sitting in fifth place, after scoring 31 goals in 16 league games. Either side of their disappointing draw with Stevenage, in which they managed 62% possession and 12 attempts to the Boro’s 5, MK Dons have thrashed both Crewe and Cambridge 4-1.

Manning spoke of his relief to still be in the hat after drawing the original tie in disappointing fashion. With a second round trip to non-league Yeovil representing the prize for Tuesday’s victors, MK Dons will no doubt fancy their chances of staying in the cup until the big boys enter in January. I’m confidently backing the favourites to emerge victorious at the second time of asking, and view 2-0 to a free-scoring MK Dons team as a strong correct score prediction.
