Swindon Town Team News:
Swindon Town will welcome back Jerel Ifil with open arms after serving his one game suspension for kicking a ball away at Chester. Jamie Vincent could also be back in the starting XI. Paul Ince may sit on the bench while, Gus Poyet, Dennis Wise, Gareth Whalley and Andy Gurney will not play any part of this fixture. Andy Monkhouse is still questionable.
Player to watch: Peter Brezovan
Can Brezovan bounce back after his 2 minutes from hell at Wrexham… the good money says he will and keep a clean sheet.
Milton Keynes Dons Team News:
Definitely out is former Swindon Town captain Sean O’Hanlon, Jamie Smith, Leon Crooks, Drissa Diallo, Keith Andrews, Gary Smith, Craig Morgan and Izale McLeod who is suspended. This will give many younger players at the Dons the chance to shine. Junior Lewis who is a non-contract player will make the trip along with 16 year old Ollie Thorne and 17 year old James Nash. The fact the Dons will be without their ‘big guns’ should give Swindon Town a huge boost going into the game.
Player to watch: Lloyd Dyer
The midfielder Scored Two for the Dons against Notts County on the 2nd of September. Was kept off the score sheet when the Dons drew 0-0 with Hartlepool Saturday.
