Milton Keynes prepare to entertain Southampton at Stadium:MK on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 8 of the 17 previous games, with the The Dons winning just 5.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Stadium:MK was less than a year ago, in March 2010, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-3 winners in a League One match.

Recent respective form guides
Milton Keynes Dons's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While The Dons have scored 4, a worringly large 8 have been leaked at the other end.
Southampton's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The games have constituted a decent return of 13 goals for the Saints, and 4 goals against.
Milton Keynes's total of 3 points from their 1 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Npower League One. Southampton are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 0 points from 1 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Milton Keynes at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the The Dons will at least gain a draw. No-score draw
