Our prediction for this League 2 match:
MK Dons will look to put an end to their three-game losing run in all competitions when they face Carlisle United on Matchday 3. The Dons have yet to find their form in the new League Two campaign, but they are surely capable of matching the Cumbrians in front of home fans. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of the visit of Carlisle United.
The visiting team, on the other hand, aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Barrow. Carlisle, though, are not regarded as good travellers, which is probably the main reason why home win should be considered. To make things even worse for the away team, Wales defender Benjamin Williams suffered an injury in the last league match. Fellow defender Jack Ellis is widely expected to replace him in the starting XI.
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.
The Dons are one of the youngest clubs in England as they were founded in 2004, but they are well known for youth development. English attacker is the club’s all-time top goal-scorer, netting 62 goals in 165 appearances for MK Dons. Dele Alli, who currently plays for Tottenham Hotspur, is the most famous footballer to have played for the Milton Keynes Dons, netting 18 goals in 62 appearances for the club in the league.
Speaking of notable coaches, it has to be noted that former Liverpool superstar Robbie Fowler and ex German international Dietmar Hamman were in charge of the club.
