Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Greenhouse Meadow will host Saturday’s football game between Shrewsbury Town and MK Dons, the two teams who were beaten by Cheltenham Town and Peterborough respectively at the weekend. The Shrews continue with their old habit of producing much better displays on home soil than on the road, with the team eyeing their third consecutive win at Greenhouse Meadow. Rekeil Pyke is widely expected to return to the starting XI after coming as a substitute in a 2-0 loss to Cheltenham Town.
MK Dons, on the other hand, regained a much-needed confidence on Tuesday evening as they defeated West Ham U21 in the EFL Trophy, but beating Shrewsbury on the road is easier said than done. A close encounter is on the cards, and we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. MK Dons attacker Matthew Dennis is pushing for a start after scoring a brace in the EFL Trophy victory.
