Morecambe in review:
MK Dons moved four points clear of the drop zone thanks to a vital 3pts against relegation rivals Morecambe, at Stadiummk.
After a dour first half it was attacker Jonathan Leko who prodded in from close range on 57 mins to gift the Dons a lead they would hold on to until that final whistle.
Dan Crowley led the Morecambe charge but could not find a a way for the Shrimps, past Cumming in the MK Goal.
Further efforts by Eisa and Leko tested the visiting Connor Ripley. However, Leko’s effort was enough to secure a 3rd straight victory on the bounce.
How Wycombe could line-up:
3-4-1-2 is the Wycombe way, new boss Matt Bloomfield has stuck to the groundwork laid by former boss Gareth Ainsworth.
Possible Wycombe starting XI:
11 aged veterans, too harsh?
How Dons could line-up:
Expect more of the same, could stick with the 4-2-3-1 that served Jacko so well in the past 3 games.
Possible Dons starting XI:
Cumming; Tucker, Lewington, Stewart; Watson, Smith, Devoy, Harvie; Leko, Eisa, Grant
Score Prediction:
Wycombe 1 MK Dons 1
A Derby day draw for these two wily combatants.
