Milton Keynes prepare to entertain Carlisle United at Stadium:MK on Tuesday evening, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The majority of those games have been won by the The Dons.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Stadium:MK was just last season, in October 2008, with Milton Keynes running out comfortable 3-1 winners in a League One match.
