The Dons finally broke through with a 1-0 win over Wigan, giving them a much-needed confidence boost, while Burton come into this one off a 2-1 defeat to Notts County and were limited to just one shot on target in that game. Burton’s strong historical record in this fixture is a concern, but their recent home pattern has been surprisingly draw-heavy, with three of their last four league games at the Pirelli Stadium ending 1-1. With Wimbledon carrying fresh momentum and Burton showing signs of inconsistency, the safer betting read is Wimbledon +0.5 — Dons to avoid defeat.
