4 mins: Kemp just offside

Ooooooh just went too quick did Dan Kemp there, Jack Payne took the free-kick rapidly to catch the home side cold but Kemp just strayed offside.

Not a lot between the sides in these early stages

Not seen very often, but the sides are going to swap ends before kick-off

Loanees in action this afternoon

MK Dons' loanees are in action too, with Craig MacGillivray starting for Stevenage against Blackpool this afternoon, and Dawson Devoy in Swindon's starting XI which kicked off earlier against Newport (it's currently 1-1).

Mo Eisa is on the bench for Exeter as he looks to make his Grecians debut against Bristol Rovers, and Conor Grant is amongst the subs after completing his move to Barnsley on Friday. They are taking on Bolton this afternoon.
