MK Dons return to Stadium MK for the first time in over three weeks , as they play hosts to Macclesfield Town.
Paul Tisdale’s side are currently unbeaten in their last nine Sky Bet League Two games, while no side in the division has picked up more points than the Dons in their last 10 games.
The Dons will certainly have to be cautious of Macclesfield, as The Silkmen have already shown this season they have the ability to take points off the teams at the top of the table.
They’ve picked up points from Mansfield Town, Forest Green Rovers, and Newport County this season – while Lincoln City scored an 87th-minute winner to beat Macclesfield in September.
Kick-Off is at 3pm.
Macclesfield returned to the EFL after a six-year absence having won the Vanarama National League by a ten-point margin last season. The man who guided them to promotion, John Askey, left for Shrewsbury over the Summer with Mark Yates handed the reigns at Moss Rose.
Yates recruited a number of fresh faces in the Summer transfer window, however, his squad suffered a number of injuries leaving the Silkmen winless in the opening two months of the season.
His two assistant, Neil Howarth and Danny Whitaker took over as joint Caretaker Managers and with a 2-1 win over Carlisle ended their winless league run of 36 EFL games without a win.
MK Dons were eliminated from the Checkatrade Trophy at the Group Stage after a 3-2 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion Under-21s.
Brighton had to come from behind to pick up the win after an Aaron Connolly hat-trick secured the victory for Simon Rusk's side. The Dons had taken an early lead through Kieran Agard's strike before Connolly drew The Seagulls level for the first time.
Hancox then scored his first goal in a Dons shirt to send Tisdale's side in 2-1 up at the break with the lead, before Connolly netted second of the evening after the break to put Brighton back ahead. The Brighton man then completed his hat-trick with 15-minutes left to play and in the process eliminated the Dons from the competition.
Meanwhile, goals from Ben Stephens and Koby Arthur gave Macclesfield Town a 2-1 win over West Bromwich Albion Under-21s in their Checkatrade Trophy Ground Stage game as they came from behind to pick up three Group Stage points.
Joe Walsh could miss today's clash as he awaits the results of a scan on the injury he sustained against Brighton & Hove Albion Under-21s in midweek.
Should be unable to go, the Dons have a ready-made replacement in Jordan Moore-Taylor, who is back available after a spell on the sidelines.
Elsewhere, Osman Sow has returned to training and discussions are being had to determine when he will be ready to return to match action.
Peter Pawlett, however, is unavailable due to a niggle he has picked up while recovering from a foot problem - he is expected to be out for at least another week. Ryan Harley and Mathieu Baudry remain absent too.
