Capital One Cup team news: MK Dons v Man
United previewThree MK Dons players are fighting to be fit for their Capital One Cup second round clash against Manchester United (8pm KO).
Goalkeeper David Martin and full-back Lee Hodson missed the goalless draw with Coventry on Saturday with knocks sustained during the win at Chesterfield.
Danny Green (hamstring) missed both the trip to Derbyshire and the stalemate against the Sky Blues and the winger will also be assessed.
Samir Carruthers made his return from a thigh strain at the weekend as a second- half substitute and the midfielder will hope to be involved from the start on Tuesday night.
Recent signing Jordan Spence, fellow defender Tom Flanagan, midfielder Mark
Randall and forwards Tom Hitchcock and
Benik Afobe are also vying for starting places.
Manchester United defender Chris Smalling and midfielder Ander Herrera will have their condition assessed ahead of Tuesday's Capital One Cup tie at Sky Bet League One outfit MK Dons.
Smalling came off in the first half of
Sunday's 1-1 Barclays Premier League
draw at Sunderland with a groin injury,
while Herrera sat out the clash due to an
ankle problem.
It is not expected that new signing Marcos
Rojo's work permit situation will be resolved in time for him to make his debut in the cup game and it remains to be seen whether fellow defender Rafael will be deemed fit enough to feature.
Head-to-head
This will be the first-ever meeting between Manchester United and MK Dons.
MK Dons
MK have won two of their previous six clashes with Premier League opponents in the League Cup.
Manchester United
