Posh boss Dan Lawlor said: "Leeds will be a tough test. They are going well in their league, but then so are we.
"Our crowd was fantastic last weekend. To have that many supporters gives the players that extra boost and makes them want to perform, not only for their teammates, but for the supporters who have come down and spent their money to be there.
“I’m looking forward to it and excited to test ourselves against another strong team. We have great momentum and we want to keep that going.”
