The EFL Trophy provides a brief break from league action as Bromley FC prepare to host AFC Wimbledon this Tuesday at Hayes Lane Stadium, with both teams looking to bounce back from their disappointing exit from the FA Cup.
The League Two side have improved their performance in the last five games, with three wins and two losses. The Ravens returned to winning ways last weekend after their elimination from the FA Cup, with a comfortable 2-0 away victory over Colchester.
The same goes for League One AFC Wimbledon, who have also had a bad run in their last five games, with one win, one draw and three losses. The Phoenix Club's most recent fixture ended in a 5-0 humiliation by Peterborough last weekend after their FA Cup exit.
