Johnnie Jackson evaluates defensive disparity in AFC Wimbledon away performances

AFC Wimbledon manager Johnnie Jackson plans to investigate a defensive performance gap between home and away matches. The team conceded seven goals in two away games, resulting in a 4-1 loss at Burton Albion on Wednesday and a 3-0 defeat at Huddersfield Town during the season opener. Conversely, the squad maintained clean sheets in both home appearances against Reading and Wigan Athletic. Jackson identified the stark difference between the defensive records as a priority for review, though he noted that identifying specific underlying causes remains difficult immediately following the recent loss. He intends to analyze the factors contributing to the team's struggles on the road compared to their defensive stability at home.
