A big crowd will see MK Dons take on Grimsby in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy at Wembley on Sunday.
Clash pitches Ince's men against Buckley's Mariners
MK Dons will take on Grimsby in front of a bumper crowd at Wembley in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy on Sunday.
Both teams could take 30,000-plus fans to the game, which is being shown live on
Sky Sports 1 from 12.30pm.
The clash pitches the up-and-coming Dons' manager Paul Ince against the vastly experienced Alan Buckley, who has been to Wembley twice before with The Mariners in the last 10 years.
After a slight mid-season wobble, the Dons are unbeaten in 11, including a 1-0 win at Grimsby in the league earlier in the month.
To get to Wembley, they beat League One high-fliers Swansea on penalties in the Southern Area Final after 0-1 away victories between the teams in the two legs.
The League Two leaders also overcame Gillingham on penalties after a 1-1 draw in the semi-final, and earlier defeated Bournemouth 2-0 and Peterborough 3-1.
Opponents Grimsby are ninth in League Two but have indifferent form coming into the game, winning three and losing the same number in their last six games.
To reach Wembley, they overcame Morecambe thanks to Paul Bolland's only goal in the two legs of the Northern Area Final.
They earlier beat Stockport 2-1 in the semi-final and needed penalties to despatch Doncaster in the quarter-final after a 2-2 home draw.
They also needed spot-kicks to defeat Rotherham after a 1-1 draw and earlier beat Huddersfield 4-1.
Team news
MK Dons will be without a trio of cup-tied players for the game.
Carl Regan, Jordan Hadfield and John Miles will all miss out after appearing in the competition for Macclesfield in earlier rounds, so Paul Ince must make changes from the side which won 1-0 at Accrington on Monday.
Colin Cameron should return in midfield after being rested against Stanley, while Ince has a wealth of options in attack.
Winger Mark Wright proved he is over his hamstring problem by coming on as a substitute to score the winner on Monday, while Jemal Johnson will also be hoping for a recall.
Defender Drissa Diallo is definitely out after dislocating his shoulder against Peterborough last week and winger Craig Dobson has yet to make his debut since signing from Stevenage in January and is still out with a groin injury.
Drewe Broughton - who scored the winning penalty against Swansea - will miss out after extending his loan spell at Wrexham.
Meanwhile, Alan Buckley has a full-strength squad to choose from for the game.
The Mariners manager has no new injury or suspension problems, with Danny North expected to partner Martin Butler up front after recovering from a knee injury.
Midfielder Ciaran Toner is pushing for a return to the starting line-up having shaken off his ankle problem.
Buckley has revealed that, injuries permitting, he knew his starting line-up 10 days ago, but was giving little away.
