Brighton & Hove Albion vs Milton Keynes Dons - Lewis Dunk banned for Brighton
Posted Thursday, January 05, 2017 by PA
Brighton will be without Lewis Dunk through suspension when they host MK Dons in the FA Cup.
Dunk starts a two-match ban for collecting 10 yellow cards this season so Connor Goldson will step in at centre-half.
Boss Chris Hughton will rotate his squad with Niki Maenpaa set to replace David Stockdale in goal while Uwe Huenemeier, Steve Sidwell and Jamie Murphy are in line for run-outs.
Midfielder Beram Kayal could make his return from an ankle injury but defender Liam Rosenior remains sidelined.
Right-back George Baldock is set to return to the MK Dons starting line-up after missing the last three games due to a hamstring strain.
Darren Potter is set to continue up front following confirmation this week that Samir Carruthers has joined Sheffield United on a permanent deal.
And options for boss Robbie Neilson are minimised following the recent departures of loan pair Ryan Colclough and George C Williams.
Dean Bowditch faces at least four more games on the sidelines with a calf injury while Scott Wootton remains a long-term absentee.
