Yeovil travel to Stadium MK this Tuesday to take on MK Dons who currently lie mid-table in 11th position.
The Glovers have lost their previous three games, albeit with two of the games coming against top 6 sides in Sheffield Wednesday and Brighton & Hove Albion, so will be hoping to get back to winning ways.
Saturday's game with Swindon saw goalkeeper coach Ben Roberts take to the field after regular 'keeper Stephen Henderson received a blow the head. Reports suggest that their will be no repeat heroics from Roberts with John Sullivan likely to be recalled after recovering from a shoulder injury.
There are no new injury concerns for Skiverton, who will have to wait and see whether full-back Nathan Smith has recovered from his groin injury.
Captain Craig Alcock looks to be a long-term absentee, as he travels to a specialist in Shropshire trying to find a solution to his ongoing back injury.
For once this season Terry Skiverton is in a enviable position, with Dons manager Karl Robinson facing the possibility of fielding no substitutes. An illness has swept through the Milton Keynes side, with Jermaine Easter first to fall victim on Saturday.
Meanwhile Jabo Ibehre is out with a knee injury, whilst Gary MacKenzie and Angelo Balanta are both suspended for the game.
Despite Dons better league position in past seasons, the head-to-head record is even, with one win each and four draws between the two sides. Last season saw Yeovil record their first win over MK Dons, with a 1-0 win thanks to Shaun MacDonald. Dons could only manage a draw at home to the Glovers that same season with a 2-2 draw.
The game is available to listen to on BBC Radio Somerset 99.5FM or you can follow my personal twitter which will post updates of the game.
