Russell Martin’s MK Dons and Andy Butler’s Doncaster Rovers clash in EFL League One action at Stadium MK this Saturday afternoon. Donny are the team in the play-offs and pushing for promotion to the EFL Championship, but the Dons are the bookies’ favourites in this one. This promises to be an intriguing League One encounter in Milton Keynes, but will we see a winner?

MK Dons Preview – Can the Dons seal a massive three points on home soil?
With nine fixtures to go, MK Dons find themselves in mid-table in League One. However, with things so tight in the exciting third tier of English football, the Dons are still in with a shout of reaching the top six.
At the time of writing, Russell Martin’s men are only five points away from Blackpool, who occupy the final play-off position. Also, an MK Dons win on Saturday will put them just three points behind Doncaster. With that in mind, this is a huge game for the Buckinghamshire club.
After three straight losses, MK Dons have finally put things right, securing successive successes over Accrington Stanley, Plymouth Argyle and Burton Albion. Can the home side make it four wins on the trot this Saturday?
Doncaster Rovers Preview – Will Donny end winless run?
After Darren Moore left for Championship club Sheffield Wednesday, Andy Butler has taken over at the Keepmoat Stadium on an interim basis. After starting with victories over Portsmouth and Plymouth, Donny are without a win in four under their temporary manager.
Rovers have struggled for wins in recent months, with those triumphs over Pompey and Argyle being their only successes in 11 in League One. As a result, the South Yorkshire club have slipped away from the automatic places, but they are still in an excellent position to take one of the four play-off spots up for grabs.
