Beattie to keep the faith

Accrington have no injury concerns and boss James Beattie may name an unchanged line-up against AFC Wimbledon.

Stanley won their first game of the season last time out against Tranmere with returning midfielder Andy Procter having a big impact in his first start since he rejoined the club.

Defender Michael Liddle and third-choice goalkeeper Andrew Dawber (both knee) have been back in full training to swell Beattie's options.

James Gray, who scored twice against Rovers, is expected to retain his place after returning to Accrington unscathed from duty with Northern Ireland Under-21s.

Dons boss Neal Ardley will make a late decision on whether to include Andy Frampton, who played in a reserve match this week after five weeks on the sidelines with a broken ankle.

Fellow defender Jack Smith is back in light training after a knee injury but will not be involved just yet, with Ardley hopeful he will be back in a fortnight.

Winger George Francomb will be in the squad, however, having trained all week after missing the last three matches with a toe injury.

Midfielder Harry Pell is still suspended for his red card against Southend in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy last week and back-up goalkeeper Ross Worner has joined Woking on loan.
