AFC Wimbledon Form

AFC Wimbledon are second in the League Two standings and level on points with four other teams. The Wombles have held their lofty position due to a superior goal difference.

Wimbledon have struggled for winning momentum recently, and are winless in five of their last eight. The London side lost their last two away, 2-0 at Colchester and 1-0 at Chesterfield, before a 1-1 draw with Swindon.

Johnnie Jackson’s outfit responded with a 1-0 home victory against Gillingham on Monday. The Dons had just six shots and Matthew Stevens struck the winner just after half time.

Winger Myles Hippolyte and defender Joe Lewis are injury doubts and could miss out on Thursday.
