Eddie Howe’s pre-match press conference ahead of the trip, penned in for 9am this morning, has been cancelled.

The match was scheduled to kick off at 7:45pm on Tuesday.

The two clubs are set to meet today with the EFL where they could agree a re-arranged date.

But with AFC Wimbledon set to take on Crewe next Tuesday and an international break to follow, it is unclear when the two sides could meet.
