Milton Keynes Dons will travel to The Brick Community Stadium in Wigan to clash with Wigan Athletic on matchday four of the EFL League One. This meeting between the 24th-placed hosts and 16th-placed visitors sees our prediction backing over 2.5 goals, as has been the case in three of their last five league outings.

Wigan Athletic are anchored at the bottom of the table and are the only League One club that has yet to register a point.

So far in the season, the home team have recorded just one win in five games - a 3-2 home win over Aston Villa U21 in the EFL Trophy.

Regarding their league performance, the faithful have been gutted and frustrated as the Latics have begun the campaign with a three-match losing streak including a 1-0 away defeat to AFC Wimbledon.

Having gained promotion from League Two, Milton Keynes Dons have yet to win a league game thus far but are still a difficult opponent to overcome.

The Buckinghamshire club have drawn their opening three games and failed to score once in a recent goalless home draw against Leicester City.

On the road this time around, they'll be hoping to register their first win. However, that'll be easier said than done considering they've won one of their last three away outings in this fixture. Notably, all encounters have produced over 2.5 goals.

Our Wigan vs Milton Keynes Dons Prediction

Wigan Athletic may have home advantage at their disposal but are still going to have a difficult outing. The home team has made a poor start to the season, particularly in League One where they've suffered three consecutive defeats, conceding two goals per game.

Milton Keynes Dons, meanwhile, could scrap another point and avoid defeat. This is their fourth meeting at the Brick Community Stadium and they have one to their name. With three of those past encounters ending with over 2.5 goals, another entertaining clash is on the cards. Our Wigan Athletic vs Milton Keynes Dons prediction: over 2.5 goals.
