Burton and AFC Wimbledon face each other at the Pirelli Stadium with both sides looking to build momentum in the early stages of the League One campaign. Burton aim to bounce back from a 2-1 defeat to Notts County and record their second win of the season. The Brewers have been difficult to beat lately, with just one defeat in their last five matches, while their home games have seen BTTS land in 80% of their last 10. However, Curtis Tilt is suspended, with Gbemi Arubi still unavailable.
AFC Wimbledon, meanwhile, arrive on the back of a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Wigan Athletic, although they managed only 0.71 xG in that triumph. The Dons have struggled for goals, scoring just 0.7 per game across their last 10 matches and failing to score in half of those games. Their away record is also modest, with only a 25% win rate. However, history strongly favours Burton, who are unbeaten in all 10 previous meetings, winning six.
Burton are unbeaten in all 10 H2H meetings and have home advantage. Therefore, our main prediction leans toward Home Win, alongside Burton to Win to Nil and Under 2.5 goals (only 20% of the last 10 H2H meetings produced three or more goals).
This League 1 match will be played on Wednesday 2 September 2026 at 19:45.
