Sunderland and MK Dons meet in a huge EFL League One fixture at the Stadium of Light on Saturday afternoon. The Dons have shot up to third after a stunning run of results, with the Black Cats two points and a place behind. Alex Neil’s reign started with a 1-1 draw at Wimbledon last weekend – can Sunderland now secure a first win in five? This mouth-watering League One matchup could go either way at the Stadium of Light. Check out the latest odds and best tips.

Sunderland Preview – Can Neil pick up his first win?

Despite Sunderland being in the top six all season, Lee Johnson was sacked as Black Cats’ boss after a 6-0 defeat at Bolton Wanderers last month. Alex Neil is the new man at the helm, and the former Norwich City manager started with a draw at Wimbledon last weekend.

Sunderland’s top two hopes have been dealt a huge blow as the club have lost four of their last seven and picked up just one win from their previous eight. The Mackems are now seven points behind second-place Wigan Athletic, who have three games in hand.

Our betting prediction:
Both teams to score
4/6

(odds taken 1740 GMT, Friday 18 February)

 
Sunderland will be desperate to put a run together under new boss Neil, starting with three points against fellow promotion hopefuls MK Dons on Saturday. They are the slight favourites at 5/4.

MK Dons Preview – Will the Dons extend unbeaten run?

While Sunderland have been stumbling of late, MK Dons have been heading in the opposite direction. Liam Manning’s side head to the Stadium of Light having won five of their past eight in the league.

After five wins from six, the Dons have drawn their last two, though. They battled to a 1-1 stalemate at Fleetwood Town before being held by Ipswich Town at Stadium MK last Saturday. Still, they have lost only one of their previous 11 League One games.
