A big stadium:mk attendance beckons for this weekend's visit of Leicester City, with the away side's 4,300 allocation already sold and tickets in the home ends selling fast.

Tickets have been in high-demand for this weekend's meeting of League One's top two sides, with runaway leaders Leicester able to all but seal the title with three points. Despite having two games in hand, the Dons will be more focused on retaining second spot after Leicester's win at Bristol Rovers pulled them 12 points clear at the top of the table.

The game remains a vital one however, as with a tricky March including opponents such as Millwall, Oldham and Leeds beckoning, the Dons need points wherever they can find them to maintain the gap between themselves and the playoffs.

After selling the initial 3,500 ticket allocation Foxes fans snapped up the remaining 800 tickets in a matter of hours on Thursday morning, giving the match a good chance of topping the club's record attendance of 17,250 set on the final day of last season against Morecambe.

Corporate areas Clubs Gold and Red are sold out, while the Family Wing, Family Corner and East Premium sections are close to following suit, with the Cowshed not too far behind.
