Dons manager Karl Robinson names the same starting eleven for the third straight game for the televised npower League 1 clash with Hartlepool United at stadiummk.
With no fresh injury or suspension issues, Robinson is able to retain the side that started both the win over Blackpool in the Carling Cup and last Saturday's league win over Swindon.
That means in-form Sam Baldock continues to lead the attack alongside Jermaine Easter, who was subject to a rejected bid from an unnamed Championship club on transfer deadline day.
Dietmar Hamann plays his fourth consecutive game in midfield alongside Peter Leven, with Mathias Kouo-Doumbé continuing at centre-half alongside Sean O'Hanlon.
