Goal Statistics

MK Dons have been reliable in front of goal of late, scoring in 6 consecutive League Two outings. Their PG of 1.5 against Gillingham on Saturday suggests that run is likely to continue.

A truly dismal PG of just 0.9 should cause concerns for Gillingham fans, as should a 8 League Two games run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
