Our prediction for this League 2 match:
MK Dons play host to Newport County at their Stadium MK in what is expected to be an interesting League Two encounter. MK Dons have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team losing to Bradford City, beating Swindon, while sharing the spoils with Wrexham. Dean Lewington is banned for the match, while Ellis Harrison should replace Cameron Norman in the starting XI as the later limped off with injury in the last league match.
The Exiles, on the other hand, quickly bounced back from a 3-1 loss to Notts County, with the team beating Gillingham thanks to Will Evans’ goal, but beating MK Dons on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Harry Charsley limped off with injury, with Matt Bondswell likely to step up.
Highlighted Team (MK Dons):
Based in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes Dons are a League One club that welcome their rivals at Stadium MK. The venue was opened in 2007 and can hold up to 30,500 spectators. Milton Keynes Dons play their home games in white shirts and white shorts, whilst their away kit is red.
