With a first-choice team Posh would struggle to compete against a side who will clinch promotion from League One with a win tomorrow, but without key defenders Tayo Edun (suspended) and Sam Hughes (injured) it looks like an impossible task.
You never know though and I reckon Posh need to throw as much pace as possible at the visitors from the start. Some players also need to know their place in the starting line-up for the Vertu Trophy Final between the sides at Wembley next Sunday is not guaranteed. Several did themselves no favours while capitulating to local rivals Northampton Town at the weekend.
I’m sticking to the 4-2-1-3 formation and restricting the tactic of playing out from the back for the opening 20 minutes just to stay in the game!
5. JADEL KATONGO
Wallin and Fernandez played okay together at St Andrews in September so there must be a temptation to pair them again, but the Swede was all over the place against Cobblers and could probably do with another break. Katongo hasn't impressed at all this season, but he hasn't had a run of games in a row. Fingers crossed for a better display here. A Wembley start could depend on it. Photo: Joe Dent
6. ARCHIE COLLINS
It wouldn't surprise me at all if Darren Ferguson picks Ryan De Havilland and Mo Susoho in midfield tomorrow and regular starters Collins and Hector Kyprianou could have few arguments if it happened. I still have faith in Collins even if his form has been disappointing. Photo: DAVID LOWNDES
7. MO SUSOHO
When Posh ripped through Charlton's press regularly the other week Susoho and Collins were the central midfielders. Kyprianou has looked well off the pace in the last couple of games so the greater energy and speed off the mark of Susoho should be employed. Photo: David Lowndes
8. KWAME POKU
The best player in the squad had a stinker on Saturday, but he has the class and quality to raise his game against the best. To have any chance tomorrow Poku needs to see a lot of the ball so in my team he has the freedom to roam from the number 10 spot to look for it and then hopefully to free the speedsters in front of him.
