Leam Richardson’s side head into the game having won their last two matches in the league, while Dons have won five straight after their 3-1 win over Cheltenham Town on Tuesday night and 2-1 win over leaders Rotherham on Saturday.
After being knocked out of the Papa John’s Trophy to Sutton on Tuesday, Keane said he and his team-mates will be eager to bounce back.
“Whenever we’ve had a defeat, we’ve always bounced back and hopefully Saturday will be the same,” he said.
“We know the way they (MK Dons) play is total football, having a lot of possession and playing out from the back.

“We know they are a threat and are dangerous, but we’ll be set up in a way where we can win the ball and have chances on the back of that.
“We know it’s down to us and we have that belief in ourselves. If we stick to our habits, focus on our roles and what we know we’re good at, hopefully we can do enough to get the three points.”
