Milton Keynes play host to Bury at The National Hockey Stadium on Saturday afternoon, determined to stop the rot against their opponents, having lost out to their rivals on 2 of the previous 3 occassions.
The last time the two teams met at Milton Keynes was amazingly over twenty years ago, in January 1983, the The Dons carving out a narrow 2-1 victory in a Fourth Division match.
