Town travel to face the MK Dons at Stadium MK on Saturday looking to record consecutive League One wins for the first time since October, backed by a huge 6,748 away following.
Joe Garner’s 10th of the season and an Adam Matthews own goal saw Town to a 2-0 away victory over second-bottom Sunderland, their first ever win at the Stadium of Light and their first on Wearside since 1989. Garner netted a brilliant low strike on 35 and Matthews stabbed over his own line in first-half injury time.
Gwion Edwards scored twice and skipper Luke Chambers and Teddy Bishop once as Town beat Blackpool 4-1 at Bloomfield Road to return to the top of the League One table. Chambers gave the Blues the lead with a brilliant strike on 16, Edwards made it two in the 37th minute before Bishop added the third just before the break. Gary Madine pulled one back for the Tangerines on the hour but Edwards sealed it with his second with 10 minutes remaining.
