MK Dons - Gillingham predictions and free betting tips [27/01/2024]

We continue to bet on English football. In the upcoming League 2 round, Gillingham and Milton Key Dons will face each other at the MK stadium. The match is promising to be tense till the last minute, and no one will want to relent. 

MK Dons

Last season, the squad didn't perform very well in League 1, finishing in the 21st place and being relegated to League 2. Now they are fighting for a comeback, currently holding the 6th position in the league table.

After a victory over Crawley Town (2:0), the team lost to Doncaster with a score of (0:3). Following this, they won against Tranmere Rovers away (2:1). Then the team lost to 'Morecambe' with a score of (1:2). However, in the last game, they managed to score another victory over 'Wimbledon' (3:1).

Gillingham

The team has been playing in League 1 for several years, but 2 seasons ago they were relegated to League 2. Since then, they haven't had good chances to come back, as they finished 17th last season. However, now they might make it, as 'Gills' are holding the 8th spot, which is at the edge of the playoffs zone.

The team is currently in good form. After a defeat from Crawley Town with a score of (0:2), they managed to cope with 'Sutton United' (1:0). In the next round, they beat Colchester by a minimal margin. Then the team continued their winning streak with a victory over 'Accrington' (2:1). In the latest round, Gills drew with Forest Green (1:1).

Head-to-head

The last head-to-head match between Milton Key Dons and Gillingham took place on 7 October 2023, and ended with a score of (2:1) in favour of Gills.

Forecast

In this confrontation, Milton are the favourites. Firstly, they are higher in the league table. Secondly, MK Dons will play at their home pitch, where they have won 4 out of their last 5 games. Gillingham definitely have chances to score, but so far they’ve managed on par only with outsiders when playing away. With this in mind, I suggest betting on the home team win.

Total forecast

I doubt that the teams will be able to show a high-scoring game, so I suggest placing a bet on total under 2.5.
