Dons manager Roberto Di Matteo has received a boost ahead of the League 1 clash at Peterborough United, with the news that winger Luke Chadwick is fit to take a place on the bench at London Road.
Chadwick, signed from Norwich City three weeks ago and not expected to feature for another two weeks, has recovered from a knee injury to be named among the substitutes for a key clash against a promotion rival.
In the team itself, Di Matteo makes one change with Luke Howell coming in for Mark Wright, while Jude Stirling returns to the bench against his old club after missing Saturday's defeat at Carlisle through illness.
Posh boss Darren Ferguson names an unchanged side from that which beat Walsall at the weekend.
Former Dons defender Craig Morgan starts at the heart of the defence alongside Gabriel Zakuani, Dean Keates will call the play from midfield and Craig Mackail-Smith shakes off a knock to partner Aaron Mclean in attack.
