MK Dons vs Yeovil Town Predictions

MK Dons made a rare slip up at home last weekend as they had to rely on a late equaliser to salvage a point against a Stevenage side pushing for the playoffs, and this failure to win can now be classed as a potential crucial missed opportunity. With Mansfield Town drawing against Lincoln on Monday, a victory for MK Dons would have seen them end the gameweek in the automatic promotion spots.

As it stands, they remain 4th in the table and lag behind Mansfield on goal difference. However, the hosts are in decent form at the moment and will be confident that they can make a push for a swift return to the third tier.

Admittedly, The Dons have had their issues this season. They endured a run of seven defeats in 10 games during the bleak winter months, but to their credit they have emerged from that downturn and come into this game having won five of their last seven outings. At home they have won 10 of their last 14 League 2 games as well, and they will be confident of adding another victory to the tally on Saturday.

That’s because they’re facing a Yeovil Town side in dire straits at the moment. They lost 2-0 at home to the relegation threatened Macclesfield last time out, leaving them just three points clear of the drop zone and with both Macclesfield and Notts County hoping to catch them up.

The visitors have now lost nine of their last 11 outings in League 2, and both of their successes during this run have come on home soil. Away from home they have lost six games on the bounce, conceding 13 goals and scoring just one in the process.

Yeovil’s lack of goalscoring form on the road is a worry for this match. MK Dons have kept a clean sheet in won without conceding in six of their last 11 home games, so with Yeovil failing to score in eight of their last 11 away matches we like the look of Yeovil to Win to Nil along with a 2-0 correct score prediction.
