                                                    Team news

                                                    Dons sweating over quartet AFC Wimbledon boss Terry Brown has injury problems for the visit of Morecambe.

                                                    Brown is waiting on the fitness of four players before finalising his squad.

                                                    On-loan Charlton forward Jason Euell returned to the squad for Tuesday's 1-0 defeat to Northampton but is nursing an ankle problem, while midfielder Ricky Wellard is a doubt with the same problem.

                                                    Striker Luke Moore is touch-and-go to be passed fit due to a knee injury and midfielder Billy Knott is another Dons player that is troubled by an ankle problem.

                                                    Brown has received a further blow with the news that forward Jason Prior and defender Gareth Gwillim are both absent with knee and hamstring problems respectively.

                                                    However, Wimbledon are boosted by the return to fitness of defender Fraser Franks, who is ready to play after a heel complaint.

                                                    Goalkeeper Barry Roche is set to return between the posts for Morecambe.

                                                    A back injury has sidelined Roche for the Shrimps' previous two matches, with on-loan Blackpool youngster Chris Kettings deputising in the 2-1 defeat at Bristol Rovers last weekend and Tuesday's 1-0 win over Macclesfield.

                                                    Jordan Burrow made his full debut in attack against the Silkmen and the 19-year-old is well placed to retain his spot.

                                                    Defender Andy Parrish is available once again having missed the past two games due to illness, while winger Izak Reid (hernia) remains sidelined.

                                                    Victory over the Dons would provide back-to-back triumphs for the first time since August, something Morecambe boss Jim Bentley feels is within his side's reach.

                                                    Yussuff to the rescue for Dons Rashid Yussuff struck with 15 minutes remaining to rescue a 1-1 draw for AFC Wimbledon and prevent a third successive defeat at home to Morecambe.

                                                    After losses to Aldershot and bottom side Northampton, the Dons looked set to suffer another painful reverse when Gary McDonald headed the Shrimps ahead after 52 minutes.

                                                    Yussuff had other ideas, though, and after collecting substitute Billy Knott's pass he fired AFC Wimbledon level, leaving Morecambe to hang on for a draw.

                                                    After an uneventful opening 10 minutes, some great play between Yussuff and Jack Midson allowed the latter to shoot from distance only to be denied by Morecambe's fit-again `keeper Barry Roche.

                                                    The Shrimps opened the scoring seven minutes into the second half when a cross from Danny Carlton found McDonald, whose header from inside the penalty area fell beyond Seb Brown.

                                                    And that looked to have settled matters until Yussuff's well-taken 75th-minute equaliser.
