Walsall host MK Dons in a massive League Two playoff battle at the Bescot on Monday night. The faltering Saddlers have dropped out of the playoffs in recent weeks and face the visiting Dons in badly need of a win. However MK are pushing on towards the promotion spots so who will our prediction back in this crucial match?

Having spent some time at the top of the table, Walsall's poor run has seen them drop down to ninth in the table with 49 points from 30 games. They are now there points outside the playoffs and eleven from the automatic promotion spots. MK Dons, in contrast, life fourth, with 58 points from 32 games, just two points outside the promotion spots.

Walsall have not won any of their last six, that includes two 0-0 home draws against Accrington Stanley and Crawley Town, a 2-2 draw away to Chesterfield, a 2-0 loss at Bristol Rovers and a 3-1 home defeat to Barnet last weekend. In midweek, they did earn a positive 2-2 draw away to Grimsby Town.

In contrast, MK Dons are unbeaten in seven, this includes a 2-2 draw away to Grimsby Town, which was followed by a 3-2 win away to Cheltenham. A 1-0 win over Newport County saw three points picked up last weekend but in midweek, the Dons could only draw 0-0 at home to Crawley Town.

Our Walsall vs Milton Keynes Dons Prediction

Our prediction for the Walsall vs. MK Dons League Two match is: A draw.

There is no doubt from the data that Walsall are struggling for wins at the moment, and they take on an MK Dons side that is in very solid form at present. That seems to rule out a win for the home side. However, Walsall are tight defensively and that gives them an opportunity to get something from this game, against a Dons side that do concede goals as well as score. As such, the draw looks a good value bet here.
