Dons manager Karl Robinson will take a 20-man squad to Nene Park on Saturday for the summer's penultimate pre-season friendly against Rushden & Diamonds.

Just five first team players will be left out of the squad to face Justin Edinburgh's Blue Square Premier side, as Robinson looks to fine-tune his team ahead of the League 1 opener against Walsall on Saturday 7th August.

Goalkeeper David Martin is a precautionary absentee after knocking his ankle in training this week, while Dietmar Hamann, Mathias Kouo-Doumbe, Jude Stirling and Gary MacKenzie will also sit the game out.

Coming just seven days before their bow at the Banks' Stadium, the Dons will be hoping for a big performance against the Diamonds in front of what is sure to be a sizeable travelling contingent.

Several of the current squad are also unlikely to have forgotten their 2-1 defeat at Nene Park during last summer's pre-season schedule and would doubtless love to put the record straight this weekend.

Tickets for Saturday's game are only available from Nene Park on the day, with access for away supporters via the Airwair Corner. Tickets are priced £10 for Adults, £5 for Concessions (Over-60s and Students with valid ID) and £2 for Under-16s.

Dons squad to travel:

Goalkeepers; Willy Gueret, Stuart Searle.

Defenders; Adam Chicksen, Tom Flanagan, Dean Lewington, Sean O'Hanlon, Danny Woodards.

Midfielders; Angelo Balanta, Mark Carrington, Luke Chadwick, Stephen Gleeson, Lewis Guy, Luke Howell, Peter Leven, Daniel Powell.

Forwards; Sam Baldock, Charlie Collins, Jermaine Easter, Jabo Ibehre, Aaron Wilbraham.
