Prediction: 1-1
AFC Wimbledon
Crawley Town will be aiming to recover from a 3-1 loss to Mansfield Town when they take on AFC Wimbledon in the League Two round 23. The Red Devils are eyeing their eighth home win of the process and they are surely capable of matching the Dons at their Broadfield Stadium. Keep in mind, though, that defender Jay Williams misses the match through suspension.
AFC Wimbledon, on the other hand, outplayed Portsmouth 5-2 in the EFL Trophy and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. All Reeves, Al-Hamadi, and Bugiel should be recalled to the starting XI after the trio came off the bench in the EFL Trophy triumph. Anyhow, the share of spoils is on the horizon as Crawley Town are tough to beat at home. In their last meeting in the English fourth tier Crawley Town defeated AFC Wimbledon 1-0.
