MK Dons face Luton Town at Stadium MK, Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire on Saturday, Oct 17 at 1:30 PM in a basement battle that neither side can afford to lose. Both clubs are deep in the relegation picture in the League 1, and defeat here could prove costly come the end of the season.

MK Dons come into this fixture drawing too many games (4D in last 5). Luton Town are struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5), making this a relatively even contest on current form.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives MK Dons a slight edge, but Luton Town are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
