Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Notts County and AFC Wimbledon square off against each other at Meadow Lane in what is expected to be an entertaining League Two game. The Magpies do not seem to be at the top of their game, with the team losing each of their last three league matches, but given their attacking potential, we are positive that Stuart Maynard’s men are going to find the net in Saturday’s encounter. David McGoldrick is rated doubtful for the match.
The Dons, on the other hand, failed to turn their dominance into victory in a goalless draw with Grimsby Town. As both AFC Wimbledon and Notts County are eager to stay in the playoffs race, both teams to score betting option should be considered. There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team ahead of the trip to Nottingham, but defender Isaac Ogundere could sneak into the starting XI.
