Milton Keynes Dons and Sheffield Wednesday will square off in an important Championship clash, counting for the 21st round of the English football second tier. Both sides need points.
The hosts are in the red zone right now, sitting on the 22nd place and unable to get a win from anywhere. MK Dons is 1 point behind salvation, lost two matches in a row and has just two points from the last 5 rounds. Since mid – October, MK Dons has been in dreadful form, amassing a horrible statline of 1 win, 2 draws and 6 losses. What’s worse, the home side failed to score in 5 of those 6 losses, so there is real trouble at the moment for MK Dons.
Sheffield Wednesday is having a good season, better than expected, but there’s no sign that Wednesday will go anywhere. Currently 8th in the table, the visitors have been extremely consistent, proved their worth time and time again (including by beating Arsenal 3-0 in the League Cup) and they are legit playoff contenders. The problem for Sheffield Wednesday is that they must start winning games, not just avoiding defeat. They are hard to beat, but have 9 draws to go with 4 losses and 7 wins – including 3 draws in the last three matches.

Team news & lineups:
MK Dons can field the best lineup, as they don’t have any injuries or suspensions, while the visitors only miss Lees.
Milton Keynes Dons: Martin – Spence, Kay, McFadzean, Lewington – Potter, Poyet – Murphy, Carruthers, Bowditch – Maynard
Sheffield Wednesday: Westwood – Hutchinson, Loovens, Turner, Pudil – Lee, Semedo – Wallace, Bananan, Forestieri – Lucas Joao
Sheffield Wednesday will surely eye this game as one they could finally win, breaking the run of draws, but it won’t be easy against a desperate MK Dons team. Surely the hosts are very unlikely to win considering the way the two teams are playing, but with grit and determination I believe MK Dons can stretch Wednesday’s run of draws a little while longer.
I expect a draw here, but the visitors can edge it if MK Dons won’t have the proper attitude. I definitely don’t believe the hosts will win, so my tip here will be Sheffield Wednesday no bet – draw. The bet will be void if the visitors win and will bring us profit if a draw occurs. Given the fact that I don’t see Dons winning this, so the risk seems slim, I will invest high stakes on the bet. Prediction: Milton Keynes Dons – Sheffield Wednesday 1-1.
