Dons looking to bring Canaries back down to earth
MK Dons will be hoping to bring an end to Norwich City's recent revival when they meet on Monday.
The Dons slipped to a first league defeat of the season in their last outing, against Huddersfield, and will be keen to get back to winning ways.
The Canaries, who are now under the guidance of Paul Lambert, have gone unbeaten through their last three fixtures, helping them to recover from a slow start.
Dons team news
MK Dons manager Paul Ince is facing an injury headache ahead of the game as he finds himself short on numbers.
Danny Woodards limped off last Saturday against Huddersfield and utility man Luke Howell is suspended after picking up five yellow cards already this term.
Mat Doumbe is also struggling with a niggle sustained against Huddersfield so Ince may be forced to hand Danny Swailes his first league start since August 2008.
Swailes has been out for over a year with Achilles troubles but was on the bench last week and may have to play.
Peter Leven (groin) is fit enough to be on the bench while striker Jermaine Easter has a thigh problem which could keep him out.
Darren Powell (hamstring) is back in training while Jude Stirling has had an injection in his groin and could be back inside a month.
Forward Aaron Wilbraham remains a month away from a comeback from his ankle injury and defender Sean O'Hanlon is a long-term casualty with a knee injury.
Norwich team news
Norwich manager Lambert will be without midfielders Matt Gill and Owain Tudur Jones for the trip to stadium:mk.
The duo are sidelined with calf injuries and could be out for another three weeks.
Goalkeeper Ben Alnwick has returned to parent club Tottenham after picking up a hip injury so Newcastle loanee Fraser Forster will continue in goal.
Midfielder Darel Russell is struggling with a calf injury and is a doubt but Adam Drury is fit despite a clash of heads against Walsall last time out.
Declan Rudd and Michael Spillane both reported back from international duty unscathed.
Rhoys Wiggins (knee) is back in training but is unlikely to feature while Damon Lathrope (broken arm) is still sidelined
Michael Theoklitos, Wes Hoolahan, Gary Doherty and Simon Whaley all played for the reserves in midweek after being left out by Lambert of late and will all hope to be back in the matchday 18.
