Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest we don't have an obvious winner in this fixture, but good reason to think Wigan and MK Dons will find the net twice at least between them. We've seen goals when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Gary Caldwell or Paul Warne has served up too many 0-0s lately either. The bookies are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with best odds of 1.30 equating to about a 73% probability.
