Milton Keynes Dons v Morecambe: Carabao Cup Third Round
Milton Keynes Dons will host Burton Albion in League One

Milton Keynes Dons will host Burton Albion at Stadium MK on Saturday in another round of League One football.

The home side have endured a difficult campaign and currently find themselves in the drop zone with pressure now mounting on manager Liam Manning. They were beaten 3-1 by Barnsley in their last league outing before being knocked out of the FA Cup after a 3-2 defeat to Portsmouth last weekend.

MK Dons sit 21st in the league table with just 14 points from 18 games. They will be looking to shake off their latest results and return to winning ways this weekend.

Burton Albion have also had their struggles this season but have hit a good patch of late. They picked up an impressive 2-2 draw against league leaders Plymouth Argyle in their last league game before thrashing Chippenham Town 6-1 in the FA Cup last time out.

The visitors are level on points with their weekend opposition but sit a place lower in the league table. They will be looking to leapfrog them with maximum points on Saturday.
