AFC Wimbledon could be without two strikers for the visit of Accrington in Sky Bet League Two on Saturday.

Lyle Taylor rescued a 1-1 draw for his side at Northampton on Tuesday night but he is struggling with a knock to his ankle while Tom Elliott has a problem with his knee.

Both forwards will be assessed on Friday ahead of the clash as eighth-placed Wimbledon look to climb back into the play-off spots.

Will Nightingale and Karleigh Osborne will definitely miss the match as the two defenders are still out with knee injuries.

Accrington suffered a major blow ahead of the game with the news Joe Wright could be out for up to two months.

The defender sustained a knee injury in the game against Oxford last month.

Stanley also confirmed that Josh Windass, Dean Winnard and Terry Gornell will not feature against the Dons.
