Yeovil felt the pain of defeat for the fourth game in a row as MK Dons enjoyed their biggest win of the season.

The Glovers have now lost at Middlesbrough, Carlisle, Brentford and now in Buckinghamshire and will be desperate to return to Huish Park when they entertain Brighton next Saturday.

Russell Slade's men suffered a pre-match blow when Darren Way was ruled out by illness, meaning Gary Roberts returned to the starting line-up.

And Yeovil nearly fell behind after eight minutes when Aaron Wilbraham threatened to break through before the ball came to Mark Wright who curled it just wide.

The hosts took the lead on 20 minutes when Wright swung in a cross from the right which Wilbraham headed goalwards. Asmir Begovic made the save but Leven reacted first to fire home.

Yeovil's first effort of note came on 33 minutes when Roberts cut in from the left to clip a curling effort that beat Willy Gueret all ends up but glanced the crossbar and went over.

Then MK Dons hit the woodwork themselved when a speculative 25-yard strike from Wilbraham also struck the bar five minutes later.

Roberts then forced a save from Gueret at the other end with a left-footed effort after Wilbraham had been floored by a clash of heads inside the box following a corner.

After the break Keiran Murtagh should have equalised when Lee Peltier's header set him free in the box. Unfortunately the midfielder dragged his shot wide of the far post.

But it was 2-0 on 57 minutes when Baldock shrugged off the attentions of Terrell Forbes and latched on to a long ball. The youngster's near post shot beat Begovic and bounced in off the post.

Leven then stung the palms of Begovic with a 25-yard strike after an elaborate free-kick and Jermaine Johnson also tested the Canadian from distance.

Danny Schofield, on his comeback, saw yellow for a foul on Dean Lewington, but then supplied a perfect cross for Terry Skiverton at the far post that the skipper should have converted. However, Skiverton headed into the side-netting and the chance to spark a comeback was lost.

Slade made three attacking substitutions with the arrivals of Gavin Tomlin, Andre McCollin and James Dayton but the Dons made it 3-0 on the break on 78 minutes when substitute Florian Sturm crossed for Leven to smash home. Game over.
