AFC Wimbledon chief executive Erik Samuelson wants to avoid negative headlines when MK Dons play at Kingsmeadow for the first time since the two clubs were founded.
AFC, who were formed in 2002 after Wimbledon opted to relocate from London to Milton Keynes, have reduced ticket allocations and increased segregation between rival supporters ahead of Tuesday's League One clash.
Speaking to the London Evening Standard, Samuelson said: "We have never played them before here, so it's going to be a different environment from the normal one.
"The ultimate intention is to make it as normal a game as we can and that means trying to win it as well.
"We have put out a statement talking about the arrangements for the game. It is our message that we want to get out there and that's why we want to stay in control of it."
In a bid to control the crowd, the visitors have been restricted to 650 tickets, while the capacity of the home end has been reduced by 100.
Home supporters have only been able to purchase tickets on a one-per-person basis and the club have requested flags and banners be registered in advance.
According to the Standard, MK Dons chairman Pete Winkelman has not yet decided whether to attend the fixture. Should Winkelman or any other MK directors travel, they are expected to stand in the away end, rather than sit in corporate seats.
