Huddersfield V MK Dons

The Terriers return to home soil and face one of their toughest tests this season as Karl Robinson's promotion chasing MK Dons roll into Town; Kick off at 3pm.

Huddersfield currently sit second in the npower leage 1 table, six points ahead of the Dons.

It is thanks to the Dons that Town remained in second after they held Sheffield Wednesday in mid-week, a result that only really favoured Town, Sheff Utd & Charlton.

The Dons despite that credible point have not won in over a month of league 1 action.

'Karl (Robinson) has done a terrific job at MK Dons - I like him a lot,' said Lee. 'He is a good manager who has got a good guy next to him in John Gorman - who in my opinion make one of the best management teams in the League. They play some of the best football in the League and it will be a very tough test. We are looking forward to it and are relishing the test.

'The fans are going to be incredibly important for us from now until the end of the season. Our general performances over the last couple of games haven't been quite there but we have managed to grind out results and I believe a lot of that is down to the fans. They have stuck by us and helped us get the results.'

Last meeting: npower League 1, Saturday 17 September 2011: MK Dons 1-1 Huddersfield Town (Scott Arfield)

The head to head record between the teams currently stands at ten victories for each team and seven draws.

Despite that, recent history would suggest that Town go into the game as favourites with the Dons failing to win a game in their last six attempts. The Terriers have won four of the games with the other two ending in 1-1 draws.

The official appointed for Saturdays match at the Galpharm is Graham Salisbury, supported by linesmen Peter Gooch and Matthew Parry and the Fourth Official who is Adrian Holmes.
