Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Burton Albion and MK Dons take on each other at Pirelli Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The Brewers have been in a splendid form of late, and, as a result, they are on the right track to secure yet another League One survival. Burton head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Blackpool, and you should bear in mind that they are eyeing their third consecutive win at home ground.
Experienced midfielder Danny Rowe, who suffered an injury in the midweek clash, is unlikely to feature against MK Dons. The visitors, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Accrington and Plymouth. MK Dons have been showing signs of improvement of late, and given Burton’s fine form in the League One, we believe that punters can find value in betting on both teams to score.
