Oztumer, who is on loan at Rovers from Charlton, has missed the last three League One matches following a brush with Covid, but is now fit and ready to return.

Oztumer (29) has started just five games for Rovers since moving to the Memorial Stadium in October.

Former Posh skipper Jack Baldwin has been a regular at the back for Rovers since joining from Sunderland in the summer and is expected to start in a three-man backline.

Former Posh goalkeeper Joe Day has recently joined Rovers on loan from Cardiff. He started just four matches in four years for Posh before moving onto Newport County.

Rovers sold striker Jonson Clarke-Harris to Posh in the summer. Clarke-Harris is joint top scorer in League One matches this season with 13 goals.
