With the mood around Plough Lane at a red-hot high, the Wombles have rightfully received a string of plaudits. Last seen putting in another eye-catching performance as they secured a 2-0 victory away at Blackpool, the former Charlton boss has seen his squad skyrocket their way into the play-off places. Knowing that they can move within touching distance of top spot here, AFC Wimbledon have remarkably won all of their previous five straight appearances across all competitions by an aggregate score of 11-4.

Starting with the hosts, watching their extended purple patch come to an end over the weekend as they eventually fell to a 1-0 loss at the hands of Carlisle, Scunthorpe are desperately seeking an immediate response here. Nevertheless, despite only making their National League return this season, Andy Butler's men have enjoyed a stellar start to proceedings. Getting Tuesday's return to Lincolnshire underway sat in the play-off places, the Irons have their sights set on mounting another promotion charge this year.

The big game of the weekend in the Premier League features Liverpool visiting Chelsea. Chelsea have lost their last two in the top flight at Manchester United and at home to Brighton & Hove Albion after being reduced to 10 players in both games. Liverpool have also looked short of their best in recent weeks, losing 1-0 at Galatasaray in the Champions League on Tuesday and 2-1 at Crystal Palace in the Premier League last Saturday.
