Milton Keynes Dons
- Milton Keynes Dons are unbeaten in their last five games (W4, D1).
- MK Dons boss Paul Warne has instilled a ‘no-holds-barred’ brand of high-tempo, aggressive pressing football since his appointment in April 2025.
- Winger Callum Brittain is the midfield dynamo that sets the pace for Milton Keynes, providing width and dynamism in the final third, while Callum Paterson is the talisman at the pointy end, currently leading the line with 14 goals in 29 League Two appearances.
- Paterson has been on fire of late, scoring six of MK Dons’ last 13 goals.
- But with 54 points from 30 games and 5th place in League Two, the hosts are clearly on a much superior promotion drive than a Crawley Town side that sit 20th with just 26 points after 31 games.
Crawley Town
- Crawley Town have won 2, drawn 1 and lost 2 of their last 5 games.
- Scott Lindsey’s men have lost their last two games, most recently a 0-3 home defeat to Cambridge United.
Head-to-Head
The last two H2H saw Crawley win one and the other was a draw, and this should be another lively one with a bit of spice added by the fact that Scott Lindsey is taking on his old club.
