MK Dons vs Portsmouth: Team News, Line-Ups, & Form Preview
MK Dons:
MK Dons remain in a big spot of bother with the team only five points away from the relegation zone. The recent run of three wins in the last four games has been a big assistance for the team, but manager Mark Jackson will be aware that the relegation worries are far from over. The hosts, though, have a fully fit squad coming into the game.
Predicted Line-Up:
Cumming, Lewington, Tucker, Stewart, Harvie, Maghoma, McEachran, Watson, Grant, Eisa, Leko
Portsmouth:
Portsmouth are slowly pushing for the play-off positions and they are certainly aided by teams like Derby County dropping points by a significant margin in recent weeks. The Portsmouth outfit have certainly made the most of games against the likes of Accrington Stanley and Forest Green. The team are now just three points behind the play-off positions. Manager John Mousinho comes into the game with Joe Pigott once again available for selection after his recent suspension. Zak Swanson and Jade Jay Mingi are the players missing from the MK Dons vs Portsmouth lineups due to injuries.
Predicted Line-Up:
Macey, Ogilvie, Towler, Raggett, Rafferty, Thompson, Morrell, Hackett-Fairchild, Jacobs, Lane, Bishop
Player to Watch: Colby Bishop
Colby Bishop is the second scorer in the league with 19 goals. Even though he was unable to score in the recent win over Forest Green, the game is only the second time that the striker has failed to be on the scoresheet for Portsmouth in the last eight outings. The 26-year-old can be back to hit 20 goals in the league this season.
Starting Line-Ups:
