Our prediction for this League 2 match:
In-form AFC Wimbledon will look to extend their winning run in all competitions to four games when they take on Fleetwood Town in the League Two round 4. The Dons quickly bounced back from a 2-0 loss to Bromley, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence and a triumph over Fleetwood could see them climb to the playoffs berth. The good news for the hosts is that Lebanon forward Omar Bugiel has overcome his injury.
The Cod Army, on the other hand, aim to remain undefeated in the new League Two campaign, but seeing that AFC Wimbledon have turned their Cherry Red Records Stadium into a real fortress, home win should be considered. The bad news for the visitors is that Ryan Graydon suffered an injury in the EFL Cup win over Rotherham just after scoring a brace. Fellow Irish midfielder Tom Lonergan should be recalled to the starting XI.
Highlighted Team (AFC Wimbledon):
Based in Kingston upon Thames, AFC Wimbledon are a professional football club that compete in the third tier of English football, commonly known as the League One. AFC Wimbledon were formed by former Wimbledon FC supporters in 2002 following the FA decision to allow the club to relocate to Milton Keynes in Buckinghamshire, only 90 kilometers north of Wimbledon.
The Dons welcome their rivals at Kingsmeadow, the stadium with the capacity of 4,850. AFC Wimbledon play their home games in blue shirts and blue shorts, whilst the colour of their away kit is yellow.
