In our next match prediction from League Two we have a match between two in-form teams as Grimsby Town host MK Dons at Blundell Park. David Artell's Mariners have been in superb form of late, winning five in a row and not conceding in their last six league games. They face Paul Warne's Dons team, who are battling hard for promotion and who are currently on the back of a three-game winning run.
The league table makes sweet reading for the visiting MK Dons fans. Their team lie second in the table with 50 points from 28 games, six points behind leaders Bromley. Grimsby are some way off that pace, lying ninth in the table with 43 points from 27 games. The Mariners are three points outside the playoff spots at present.
As you would expect for in-form teams, both sets of recent results are excellent. Grimsby's winning run has seen them earn a 1-0 home win over Barnet, which was then followed last weekend by a 2-0 win at Cheltenham. Then in midweek, they grabbed another three points with a 1-0 win at Colchester, despite playing most of the second half with ten men.
MK Dons' three-game winning streak began with a 2-0 away win at Accrington Stanley and then a whopping 5-1 thrashing of Shrewsbury Town at home. Then in midweek, they battled to a 1-0 home win over Bristol Rovers.
