MK Dons have no new injury problems for the visit of Cardiff.

Manager Karl Robinson could rotate his team, with Sam Gallagher, Daniel Powell, Josh Murphy, Diego Poyet and Carl Baker all vying for a recall.

Cardiff defender Sean Morrison misses his first Championship game of the season after being ruled out for over a month with a knee injury.

Last season's player of the year Bruno Manga is likely to deputise for Morrison.

MATCH FACTS
  • MK Dons have won seven of their previous eight Boxing Day fixtures, losing the other.
  • Cardiff have kept just one clean sheet in their past 15 league games held on Boxing Day.
  • MK Dons have the best average possession figure in the league (55.8%).
  • Cardiff have conceded exactly two goals in five of their last six Championship games.
  • No team has received more bookings than Cardiff this season (45, level with Preston). :emoticon-0103-cool:
 
No wins away at the three promoted clubs this season. A draw at Preston and losses to MK (cup) and Rotherham. Can we buck the trend today? Surely if we're going to make the Playoffs this is the sort of game we should be winning?

C'mon City!
 
hey, there's life out there.

Season's greetings to all.

Need 3 points here. Hanging on to the play off tails.
 
I'll be around this afters as well fellas - can't wait to slag off Slade again........<laugh>

(.............or will I have to eat my words? <doh>)
 
No real surprises there then - although I'd have played Whitts instead of Ameobi and had him sitting behind Jones and Watt as a proper No. 10

Surely we have to send Ameobi back if he flops today?

Sparks, I'd rather have Noone than Whitts on the wing. Russells never going to play a diamond, ahah
 
hmm, interesting. They aren't usually more than a few minutes behind. probably got 1 bloke covering 20 games.

Watching rugby on line so didn't realise how much time had gone.
 
Why do people keep saying we have a quality squad? I would add one more adjective - poor.

They are just not up to it and neither are the management.
