Games don't come much bigger in League Two than Saturday's match between Crewe Alexandra and MK Dons. The Railwaymen are battling for a playoff spot but face a Dons side that is hot on the heels of leaders Bromley and seeking to win the division and secure an automatic promotion spot. Will our prediction back Alex to land the win, or will MK keep the pressure on at the battle at the top of the table?

It is easy to see how important this game is to both teams by looking at the L2 table. Crewe lie 10th, six points outside the playoffs with just three games left to play. They have 66 points from their 43 games. MK Dons lie second in the table with 79 points from 43 games, three clear of Notts County in the first playoff spot, two ahead of Cambridge in third and four behind leaders Bromley.

Crewe's recent form is very much delineated by where the game was played. At home, they have beaten Oldham Athletic 2-1 and Salford City 1-0, but away from home, they lost 2-0 at Accrington Stanley and most recently went down 3-2 at Grimsby Town last weekend.

MK Dons suffered a blip in form, losing 3-1 at home to Barnet and 1-0 at Salford. Since then, they've drawn 0-0 at home to Barrow and 1-1 at Oldham but last weekend earned an important 2-1 home win over leaders Bromley.

Our Crewe Alexandra vs Milton Keynes Dons Prediction

Our prediction for the Crewe Alexandra vs. MK Dons League Two match is: MK Dons wins.

In truth, Crewe fans will likely feel their chances at the playoffs are now gone, whereas MK Dons know that they remain in with a real chance of finishing top, but only if they can win this game. The Dons did have a blip of four without a win, but last weekend's win against leaders Bromley will have been a huge boost and as such, they are the best bet to back for the win here.
