Barnard set for Cherries start
Bournemouth,
Last updated:
Lee Barnard will retain his place in attack when Bournemouth host MK Dons.
The Cherries striker signed on loan from Southampton before Saturday's kick-off against Portsmouth and popped up with the equalising goal.
Barnard was partnered by Wesley Thomas and Paul Groves is expected to name the same duo up front.
Fellow striker Steve Fletcher was left out of the squad for that fixture but is expected to return on the bench.
Frank Demouge, Josh McQuoid and Charlie Sheringham all remain sidelined but Tommy Elphick is set to retain his place in defence after a successful comeback from an Achilles problem against Pompey.
Richard Hughes is nearing match fitness but is not yet ready.
