Prediction: 1-1
Gillingham
AFC Wimbledon will be aiming to put an end to their five-game winless run in all competitions when they host Gillingham at the Cherry Red Records Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The Dons want to escape the danger zone in the League One standings, but beating Gillingham is easier said than done. AFC Wimbledon are undefeated in the previous three home games in the English third tier, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of Saturday's football match.
The Gills, on the other hand, quickly bounced back from a 3-0 loss to Rotherham United, with the team beating Lincoln City 1-0 in front of home fans. Steve Evans' troops suffered only one defeat in the last six away games in the League One, and they are surely capable of grabbing something from the Cherry Red Records Stadium clash.
