Our prediction for this League 1 match:
High-flying Plymouth will be looking to retain top position in the League One table when they face MK Dons on Matchday 14. The league leaders are eyeing their fifth consecutive league win, and it is no wonder the odds for away triumph have been dropping. A man to watch in the away side will be Sam Cosgrove, who managed to find the net in each of the last three league fixtures, while centre-back Dan Scarr misses out through suspension following his sending off in a 3-0 win over Accrington.
The Dons, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team extending their losing run to three games against Bristol Rovers. Since the hosts are low on confidence ahead of Saturday’s match, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the promotion-chasing visitors. MK Dons midfielder Dawson Devoy is in the middle of his three-game ban.
Highlighted Player (Mo Eisa):
Born on the 12th of July, 1994, in Khartoum, Sudan, Mo Eisa is a Sudanese professional footballer who plays for Peterborough United in the third tier of English Football. The 6ft tall striker/ winger is a Pro Touch Soccer Academy product.
The initial years of his career were spent playing non-league football with teams like Dartford, Leatherhead, and Greenwich Borough, the latter for whom he scored over 50 goals in 100 appearances. On the 7th of July, 2017, Eisa signed a contract with League Two outfit Cheltenham Town and made his league debut on the 5th of August, 2017.
A prolific season with the Robins earned him the Supporters' Player Of The Year and the Players' Player Of The Year awards at the end of the season. For the 18/19 season, the 25-year-old joined Championship side Bristol for a brief stint before returning to League One with Peterborough for the following season on a four-year contract.
Highlighted Team (Plymouth):
Nicknamed the Pilgrims, Plymouth are a professional football club that host their rivals at Home Park. The stadium, which can hold up to 18,600 people, was built in 1892 and opened the following year. Plymouth footballers wear dark green jerseys and white shorts when playing in front of home fans, while light green and white are the dominant colours of their away kit.
The Pilgrims made it to the FA Cup semi-finals in the 1983-84 season, with the team advancing to the Football League Cup semis on two occasions (1964-65, 1973-74). The Pilgrims recorded their biggest win against Millwall on January 16, 1932, with the team beating the Lions 8-1, and they repeated the success in 1994 as they rolled over Hartlepool United in the Second Division.
The club suffered their heaviest defeat against Stoke City (0-9) on December 17, 1960. Fellow Devon teams Exeter City and Torquay United are seen as the club’s fiercest rivals.
