National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Milton Keynes Dons or Stevenage that keep their silverware dream alive.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Milton Keynes Dons form and stats
Last season, Milton Keynes Dons's FA Cup journey ended in the 3rd round.The story so far in the League One for Milton Keynes Dons at their home stadium (Stadium mk) is 4 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats.
It's back home for Milton Keynes Dons, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Crewe Alexandra away with the result 4-1. Mohamed Eisa, Max Watters and Matt O'Riley found the net in that victory. Midfielder Matt O'Riley was the best player on the team with a rating of 8.0 (out of ten) in that game. O'Riley scored one goal, hit one key pass and had 30 successful passes (of 35 total).
Before that game, the home loss against Aston Villa U21 with the scoreline 2-4.Milton Keynes Dons are believed to win this game, given a winning chance of about 70% by the bookmakers. We have checked our records for their performance in similar circumstances and found one match and the win/draw/lost stats: Won zero, drew zero and lost one.
Milton are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 7 games. On the other hand, Milton Keynes Dons have conceded 9 goals.
Stevenage form and stats
Stevenage's mission in FA Cup last season failed in the 3rd round.The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Stevenage so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 1-1-6 (win-draw-lose). The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on A. Revell, the Stevenage manager, as the last three away games were defeats.
The attacking players of Stevenage have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 391 minutes.
Stevenage play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-5 to Newport County. As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Newport County was particularly ugly (0-5). The humiliation is still top of mind. Stevenage goalie Adam Smith was glad for a brilliant day at work against Newport County, but despite registering six saves the loss could not be stopped. Midfield player Jake Reeves was the top player of the team with a match rating of 6.85/10. Reeves hit two key passes and had 36 successful passes (of 42 total).
Ahead of that game was the 0-0 draw at home against Leyton Orient in the League Two.You'll want to know how Stevenage managed when outsiders such as today. Our database found one similar match resulting in zero away wins, zero draws and one home win.
A new game in only three days for Stevenage, the EFL Trophy home match versus Cambridge United. Busy days.
Stevenage are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 4 goals from 8 away games. The Stevenage manager A. Revell has some worries about the defense as 18 goals have been conceded in these travels.
