Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Buoyed by a hard-fought 1-0 win over Tranmere Rovers, Grimsby Town will look to keep on climbing the standings when they take on MK Dons on Matchday 14. The Mariners proved their worth in the midweek triumph, but they need to keep on improving their game if they are to make it to the playoffs. Talented Trinidad striker Justin Obikwu should keep his place up front after scoring the winner against Tranmere, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Dons, on the other hand, have been showing signs of improvement of late, beating both Morecambe and Accrington in the last two league matches. As the visitors have found their best form of late, we predict that they are going to give fans yet another reason to celebrate this weekend. A man to watch in the away team will be wing-back Joe Tomlinson, who has been producing excellent performances in the League Two in October.
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.
