Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Buoyed by a 5-3 win over Harrogate, MK Dons will be aiming to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Sutton at Stadium MK. The Dons quickly bounced back from a 4-1 loss to Mansfield Town and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. Experienced forward Ellis Harrison is pushing for a rare start after scoring as a substitute in the crushing of the Sulphurites.
The Yellows, on the other hand, need a big win in the decider if they are to avoid relegation. As Sutton have no other option but to go all guns blazing at MK Dons, we believe that there is a big value in betting on over 2.5 goals. Anyhow, the promotion-chasing hosts are closer to picking up all three points than the relegation-threatened visitors. Steve Morisonis unlikely to make changes to the team that shared the spoils with Crawley Town at the weekend.
Highlighted Team (MK Dons):
