The Milton Keynes Dons earned a point in their away match against Oldham Athletic on Monday 6 April 2026, playing out a 1-1 draw at Boundary Park. The result keeps the club in 2nd place in League Two as they continue their push for promotion with only four matches left in the season.
The visitors took an early advantage in the 30th minute when defender Marvin Ekpiteta scored with a header following a cross from Curtis Nelson. The lead held for much of the match until Oldham Athletic striker Mike Fondop equalised with a header of his own in the 84th minute, following a cross from Josh Hawkes.
MK Dons manager Paul Warne noted that while he felt the draw was a fair result, the timing of the equaliser was difficult to take. He stated that when leading with only seven minutes remaining, it is natural to be disappointed not to come away with all three points.
The draw marks the fourth consecutive game without a win for the team, which currently sits on 76 points from 42 games. Despite the recent run, the club maintains the best goal difference in the division at plus 35, supported by 77 goals scored this season. Top goalscorer Callum Paterson, who has netted 14 league goals, remains a central figure in the team’s attack.
The squad now looks toward their remaining fixtures as they pursue an automatic promotion spot. They are set to face Bromley at home on 11 April, followed by an away match against Crewe Alexandra on 18 April, a home game against Tranmere Rovers on 25 April, and a final away fixture against Fleetwood Town on 2 May.
