MK Dons manager Paul Ince is set to be without defender Danny Swailes for the top-of-the-table clash with promotion rivals Peterborough.Swailes was a late withdrawal from last weekend's 4-0 thrashing of Dagenham & Redbridge with a knock and is struggling to make the visit of Darren Ferguson's side.

That should see Drissa Diallo continue at centre-back after recovering from his hamstring problem with utility-man Jude Stirling at right-back in place of Carl Regan (hamstring).

Aaron Wilbraham started his first game in nine last week after a knee injury and scored twice so will continue at the apex of Ince's new 4-2-3-1 formation.

Mark Wright (hamstring) remains out but Kevin Gallen came on and scored against the Daggers after injury and then completed an hour in the reserves to stake his claim for a starting berth.

Ince's side are currently ahead of the visitors on goal difference with a game in hand at the top of League Two.
