Fleetwood Town vs AFC Wimbledon - Game of stick or twist for Uwe Rosler

Posted Friday, March 17, 2017 by PA

Uwe Rosler has to decide whether or not to stick with a winning line-up as Fleetwood entertain mid-table AFC Wimbledon.

Devante Cole and Ashley Eastham both missed the 1-0 win over Walsall which kept Fleetwood second in the Sky Bet League One table, but they could be fit to return against Wimbledon.

Manager Rosler was impressed with Bobby Grant's performance against Walsall and fellow forward Ash Hunter, who completed the full game in his first start for some time.

On-loan Liverpool midfielder Cameron Brannagan also caught Rosler's eye and could keep his place against Wimbledon after his corner set up Cian Bolger for the only goal of the game against Walsall.

Wimbledon manager Neal Ardley is set to welcome back defender George Francomb for the clash.

Francomb missed Tuesday's win over MK Dons to be with his wife, who was giving birth, but he is available again this weekend.

Tom Soares faces a late fitness test as he tries to overcome an ankle problem while Chris Whelpdale is still regaining match fitness following a groin strain.

Dean Parrett and Darius Charles both came through unscathed against MK in midweek, after recovering from ankle and hamstring injuries respectively.
