Peterborough Sports’ match is postponed as full-back called up to travel to Newcastle United for an FA Cup tie, but Yaxley chase a sixth straight win, Stamford seek to maintain their play-off push and Peterborough North End play for the first time in a month

It would have been a battle between third and fourth. Sports’ right-back Liam Bennett has also been recalled by Cambridge United and is expected to travel to their third round FA Cup tie at Newcastle United.

There’s plenty of non-league action elsewhere tomorrow with in-form Yaxley chasing a sixth Northern Premier Midlands Division win in a row at home to Chasetown (3pm). Play-off chasing Stamford host Sporting Khalsa.

Peterborough North End play their first Thurlow Nunn Division One North match for a month. The mid-table team host Huntingdon in a local derby at the Bee Arena (3pm) and adult admission is just £4.

Whittlesey Athletic, who occupy the final play-off place, are at the University of East Anglia who are a place below them.
