Over 0.5 First Half Goals

With at least 1 first-half goal scored in all of MK Dons’ last 12 matches we fully expect this trend to continue. There was also at least 1 first-half goal in all of Accrington’s last 4 games. Also, in all of the Dons’ last 9 away league matches.

BTTS – No

Our second Accrington vs MK Dons prediction is that not both teams will be able to score. Both Accrington and MK Dons are fighting for survival for a reason, the reason being that they don’t score enough goals. That’s why we think not both teams will score in this match.

Only 1 of the Dons’ last 4 games saw both teams scoring. Also, only 2 of Acrrington’s last 7 games produced BTTS finishes.

Accrington or Draw

Accrington are unbeaten in their last 3 home matches vs MK Dons (W2 D1). The Reds also lost only twice in the last 6 rounds (W2 D2), with both those defeats against top 10 teams. At the same time, MK Dons dropped into the relegation zone after winning only once in the last 7 games (D2 L4). Due to all this, our final Accrington vs MK Dons prediction is for the home side to avoid defeat.

Accrington vs MK Dons Lineups & News

Accrington

Accrington lost 1-3 at home vs Portsmouth in midweek. The Reds had disciplinary problems yet again in this match and for the second time in the last 3 rounds, they finished the game reduced to ten men. Despite this defeat, the recent form had been decent enough – (W2 D2 L2).

Can be expected to refresh the lineup due to the quick turnaround. Hopes are that wing-back Longelo will shrug off a knock on time and if he does he could start too. The main goalie Jensen set to miss again due to a ban though.

Still without 5 sidelined players and the midfield line is a bit bare with all of Hamilton, Coyle and Pritchard among the absentees.

MK Dons

The Dons stopped a 6-game winless run last weekend with a scrappy 1-0 home victory vs Cambridge. The display was far from impressive again. The result was massive though and now MK Dons sit only 2 points from safety.

The important defender McEachran made his return from injury as a sub last weekend. Now he could be considered for a starting role. Light on the right flank where both the main wing-back Jules and the starting winger Leko are missing suspended. Also, have 3 long-term absentees. Among them is the starting centre-back O’Hora.
