Prediction: 0-2
Colchester
Out-of-form MK Dons will try to put an end to their five-game winless run when they take on Colchester United on Saturday afternoon. The Dons do not seem to be at their sharpest, but it seems as if their performances are much better than the results. Midfielder Jay Williams serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards, while both Nathan Thompson and Jonathan Leko remain in the recovery room.
The U’s, on the other hand, have drawn each of their last three league matches. Colchester United are eager to keep their playoffs hopes alive and given MK Dons’ poor form, there is a big value in betting on the visiting team. It has to be noted, though, that forward Owura Edwards is banned for the away side following his sending-off in a 1-1 draw with AFC Wimbledon.
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.
