🔮 Prediction

When taking all factors into account, AFC Wimbledon will probably be able to create a high number of chances and successful shots on target.

However, Crawley Town may well find it hard to find the back of the net but we do think it’s quite likely that they will be hitting back at some stage.

We’re therefore expecting to see a pretty comfortable 3-1 win for AFC Wimbledon when the full-time whistle blows.
