Turner may change Starting Eleven

Hereford United travel to MK Dons this afternoon for what is expected to be a difficult game against a side currently second in League One. Whilst the Bulls lost 2-0 to Northampton last Saturday, the Dons defeated Walsall 3-0.

Graham Turner may make changes to his starting eleven. The dropping of Kris Taylor last Saturday came as a surprise as he had looked to have cemented his place at left back recently. In came Richard Jackson, who had recovered from injury, as right back with Richard Rose moving across to left back.

The manager also decided to start Steve Guinan with Bradley Hudson-Odoi in attack last Saturday. This combination didn't work too well and there may be a case for dropping Hudson-Ohoi.

Playing on what should be an excellent surface this evening, there might also be a case for starting Matty Done on the left perhaps in place of Clint Easton.

No new injury concerns have been reported from Edgar Street, however it is unclear whether either Sam Gwynne or Stephen O'Leary will be fit enough to take some part in the game.

After Saturday's game captain Karl Broadhurst seemed pleased to have the opportunity to play another game this evening.

"That's the beauty of football you always got a game to put things right and what better challenge than going to MK Dons and producing a result," said Broadhurst.

"Going to a place like MK Dons - it's a lovely stadium, great playing surface - no one is going to expect us to get anything there. We are going to be the under-dogs like we have been for the majority of the season.

"Why not, why can't we get a result there?"

As for the Dons, they are likely to be without captain Dean Lewington who was injuried at Walsall but could include new signing former Chelsea striker Tore Andre Flo and also 19 year old Shaun Cummings who is on loan from Chelsea.

For those unable to attend the game there will be full commentary on BBC Hereford and Worcester's 94.7FM frequency around Herefordshire. Another way to listen is to sign up to a 99 pence offer on the MK Dons official website.
