Liam Manning could shuffle his pack from the opening day defeat at Cambridge and might be tempted to hand debuts to Bradley Johnson and youngster Louie Barry. Darren Moore will be forced into making at least one change from last weekend, with Lee Gregory serving a one-match ban for his sending off. His absence could allow Michael Smith to make his full debut.
Milton Keynes Dons have been winning at both half time and full time in 6 of their last 8 home matches (League One). There have been under 2.5 goals scored in 5 of Milton Keynes Dons's last 6 games (League One). Milton Keynes Dons are undefeated in 9 of their last 10 home matches (League One). Milton Keynes Dons have scored at least 2 goals in their last 3 home matches against Sheff Wed in all competitions.
MK Dons' questionable opening day record continued at Cambridge United last weekend with a narrow defeat ensuring a third season on the bounce in which they've failed to start with a victory. It doesn't get any easier for the Dons either, with Sheffield Wednesday, a side they've not beaten in eight previous League One meetings, the first side to visit Stadium MK this season. But Darren Moore's side were far from convincing in their league opener and needed a Fisayo Dele-Bashiru brace to rescue a point in a thriller with Portsmouth at Hillsborough. The Owls have an impressive record against MK Dons and won 3-2 here on their last trip back in April, which included a memorable long-range strike from Barry Bannan. 0:2
