Evatt told the Bolton News: “The way Peterborough play is never going to change, so regardless of results they’re always going to knock on your door and ask you questions constantly.
"There won’t be a moment in the game when you can switch off because defensively they will test you. We have to make sure we show the same levels of concentration as we did against Charlton and MK because if we don’t, we’ll get hurt. Peterborough can be against the ropes and all of a sudden swing a right hook and you’d be on the canvass - that’s the type of team they are.

“The results of won four, lost four suggest they are a dangerous team. Tthey are not in it to draw. They are capable of walloping you, but also throwing games open and losing them as well.
“They are very good in transition, commit loads of bodies forward, so it will be a challenging game.

I don’t think you’re ever comfortable against teams like Peterborough. They’re never out of the game, they’re always likely to create something so it’s a difficult game but one we’re looking forward to.”
