Milton Keynes DonsNo absentees
Our Blackpool vs Milton Keynes Dons predictions lean towards the draw once more at Bloomfield Road, where League One‘s great levellers MK Dons visit a struggling Blackpool on Tuesday, 7.45pm kick-off.
Blackpool welcome Milton Keynes Dons to Bloomfield Road on Tuesday 20 October, kick-off 7.45pm, with the hosts just above the League One drop zone after a wretched spell. Three straight defeats have left Blackpool 20th on eight points, and belief is in short supply on the Fylde coast.
MK Dons, by contrast, simply refuse to lose by much, sharing the points in six of their nine games so far. Anthony Eadson has studied the numbers for both sides and keeps coming back to another stalemate, and the best bets are laid out below.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson has picked out two bets for Bloomfield Road, with prices taken across the leading UK bookmakers.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| The draw and both teams to score | 10/3 (Sky Bet) | MK Dons have become the division’s great levellers, drawing six of their nine League One games and sharing three of their last five, so the stalemate holds obvious appeal. The both-teams-to-score element stacks up too: Blackpool have kept just one clean sheet all season and have scored in three of their last five, while the Dons have found the net in four of their last five outings. Blackpool’s leaky backline has shipped 16 goals in nine games, and a MK Dons side that keeps drawing should cause them problems. At 10/3, the draw with goals at both ends makes plenty of sense. |
| Aaron Collins to score anytime | 2/1 (Paddy Power) | Aaron Collins is the one MK Dons forward carrying a genuine goal threat, with seven of the side’s 11 league goals this season, a huge share for a team that has struggled for cutting edge up front. Blackpool have been there for the taking at the back, keeping only one clean sheet in nine games and conceding 16 in the process, including four at home to Plymouth Argyle last month. With MK Dons scoring in four of their last five, Collins should get his chances, and 2/1 for him to find the net anytime is well worth backing. |

How Blackpool go into the game
Blackpool sit 20th in League One with eight points from nine games, having won two, drawn two and lost five while scoring 13 and conceding 16. Recent form makes for grim reading: they were beaten 2-0 at Leyton Orient last time out, a result that followed a 1-0 loss at Cambridge United and a 4-2 home reverse against Plymouth Argyle.
The one bright spot in recent weeks was a 2-2 home draw with Bromley, but Blackpool have not won since. Home form offers a little more hope, with one win, two draws and a single defeat from four at Bloomfield Road and nine goals scored there. Even so, just one clean sheet all season underlines why goals at both ends look likely.
How Milton Keynes Dons go into the game
Milton Keynes Dons arrive 18th on nine points from nine games, a total built on a remarkable six draws to go with one win and two defeats, scoring 11 and conceding 16. They head here off the back of a 2-1 home win over Luton Town last time out, a first league victory that followed a heavy 5-1 home defeat to Reading.
Before that, MK Dons drew three in a row: 0-0 away at AFC Wimbledon, 1-1 at home to Peterborough United and 3-3 away at Wycombe Wanderers. On the road they are still without a win, taking three draws and one defeat from four away trips, though Aaron Collins keeps them ticking with seven goals, comfortably the club’s top scorer.
Blackpool vs Milton Keynes Dons head-to-head
| Date | Home | Score | Away |
|---|---|---|---|
| 09/03/21 | Milton Keynes Dons | 0-1 | Blackpool |
| 24/10/20 | Blackpool | 1-0 | Milton Keynes Dons |
| 14/09/19 | Blackpool | 0-3 | Milton Keynes Dons |
| 24/03/18 | Milton Keynes Dons | 0-0 | Blackpool |
| 12/08/17 | Blackpool | 1-0 | Milton Keynes Dons |
Meetings between these two have been rare in recent years, with the feed holding five, and it is Blackpool who have had the better of them, winning three to MK Dons’ one with one drawn. The most recent came back in March 2021, when Blackpool won 1-0 away at MK Dons, though those games are old enough to carry little weight on Tuesday.
Blackpool vs Milton Keynes Dons predictions & betting tips
| Our Prediction | Odds & Bookmaker | Confidence | Why We’re Backing It |
|---|---|---|---|
| The draw | 11/4 (Paddy Power) | ⭐⭐⭐ | MK Dons have won just one of their nine League One games so far, with sharing the spoils their stock-in-trade this season. |
| Both teams to score – Yes | 1/2 (bet365) | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Blackpool have scored in three of their last five and conceded in all five, so both ends of the pitch should be busy. |
| Under 2.5 goals | 7/5 (Paddy Power) | ⭐⭐⭐ | MK Dons have failed to score in two of their nine games and rarely run up big totals, pointing to a cagey night. |
| Correct score: Blackpool 1-1 Milton Keynes Dons | 7/1 (Betfred) | ⭐⭐ | Blackpool have won only two of nine and lack the firepower to blow sides away, even in front of their own fans. |
Blackpool vs Milton Keynes Dons score prediction
Everything points towards another stalemate here. MK Dons have drawn six of nine and keep finding a way to share the points, while Blackpool’s shaky defence should be breached by a side that has scored in each of its last five. We are backing the spoils to be split in a 1-1 draw at Bloomfield Road. Score prediction: Blackpool 1-1 Milton Keynes Dons.
