Wednesday 2 September 2026 22:37, UK
Burton came from behind at the Pirelli Stadium to record an impressive 4-1 victory over AFC Wimbledon in League One.
Jayden Stockley had given the visitors an 18th-minute lead but George Evans' free-kick and an Alistair Smith own goal had Albion in front by half-time, with Charlie Webster and debutant Caylan Vickers adding second-half goals.
Albion made the early running in a lively first half but found themselves behind when Stockley glanced home his first League goal for the Dons from James Tilley's right-wing cross.

Burton showed plenty of promise in attack and it was deadline-day signing Vickers that showed quick feet in a direct run before being brought down just outside the box. Evans levelled from the resulting free-kick that left keeper Joe McDonnell rooted to the spot.
Albion were ahead in the 34th minutes when Sulyman Krubally found Kyran Lofthouse on the right and his teasing low cross was turned into his own net by Smith.
It took Burton just eighteen second-half seconds to extend their lead as Lofthouse set up Webster to fire home from the edge of the box.
Vickers capped an impressive debut after 76 minutes, sliding in to convert Krubally's cross.
