With a tough Sky Bet League One battle against Derby next Saturday, Manning and his side will want to build as much momentum as possible – and a first win in four at Stadium MK would certainly do that. Kick-off is at 3pm. THE OPPOSITIONTaunton Town will compete in the First Round Proper of the Emirates FA Cup for only the third time in their history this weekend. The Somerset club first reached this stage of the competition back in 1981, when they faced Swindon Town at the County Ground, before returning to the Proper stages for a second time in 2016. Taunton’s Emirates FA Cup success this term comes in the same calendar year in which they enjoyed a first-ever promotion to the National League South - under Head of Football Rob Dray, the Peacocks secured the 2021/22 Southern League Premier Division South title.

LAST TIME OUTMK Dons were held to a 0-0 draw by Cheltenham Town despite a dominant showing from Liam Manning’s men at the Completely-Suzuki Stadium. The Dons had the better of the chances in the first half, with Will Grigg and Bradley Johnson both forcing saves, although Jamie Cumming did produce a fine reflex stop to deny James Olayinka. In the second, it was more of the same from Manning’s side as Johnson, Nathan Holland, Zak Jules and substitute Mo Eisa were all denied by Robins ‘keeper Luke Southwood. Taunton Town enjoyed a convincing 4-1 win over Tonbridge Angels at the Cygnet Health Care Stadium – their first league victory since September. Craig Braham-Barrett’s own goal put them in front after just two minutes but Tonbridge equalised through a miss-hit Dylan Gavin strike, which completely wrong-footed Town goalkeeper Jack Bycroft. The Peacocks, though, restored their lead on the stroke of half-time courtesy of Nat Jarvis’ header. Second-half goals from Zac Smith and Ollie Chamberlain put the game to bed.
They have made a positive start to life in the sixth tier and currently sit 16th in the table with 17 points to their name from their opening 14 matches. Last time out they beat Tonbridge Angles 4-1, taking their total for goals scored to 13 goal. Their squad includes several players with EFL experience, including Lloyd James who made over 200 appearances for the likes of Southampton, Colchester United, Leyton Orient and Exeter City.

Another player who will be looking to get back on the pitch either on Saturday, or in Tuesday's Carabao Cup tie, is Tennai Watson - the full-back has returned to full training and could be in line for a comeback. Taunton Town will look to lean on the goalscoring form of Dave Sims-Burgess, who currently leads the Peacock’s goalscoring chart with three goals so far this season. They have experience in their midfield in the form of Lloyd James, who has over 200 EFL appearances to his name for the likes of Southampton, Leyton Orient and Exeter City, while their goalkeeper, Jack Bycroft, is on loan from the Premier League Saints. OFFICIALSThomas Kirk is Saturday’s match referee, taking charge of his 17th game of the 2022/23 season. Kirk, who has never taken charge of an MK Dons match before, has shown a total of 68 yellow cards but is yet to brandish his red card. He has, however, awarded six penalties, including two occasions where he has given two in one game.
