LIVE: HULL CITY v PETERBOROUGH UNITED: Dembele puts Posh back in front

Yellow card for Huddlestone for dissent, he took exception to an offside call. Just as well for Posh, Norburn had got in all sorts of bother and lost the ball.

Great ball again, missed by everyone but it drops in the centre of the box, Posh hack clear but it comes back via Honeyman and he crosses into Bernard. He put his effort well over the bar though. Posh look lively but set pieces are a problem.

Another corner Hull, Elder has a good delivery on him, as he just showed.

Ball into a great area in the six yard box from Butler but no one attacks it, still a corner though as Huddlestone puts it out but the corner is so poor and Huddlestone is there again for an easy head clear.

Good delivery to the edge of the six yard box, Posh did not have their markers and Bernard stoops to head the ball but directs his effort wide. Let off.

Hull corner, Butler does well on the slide to deny Wilks a crossing chance.

Posh pick up the ball through Grant, he goes back to Thompson, he switches to Taylor on the left who has all kinds of space, he runs forward but does not have the pace to get away, he has to cut back and shoots from the edge of the box but he scuffs well over.

Grant appears to be playing on the right of a front three with, Dembele in the middle and Szmodics on the left. Posh seeing the ball early, yet to look dangerous. Thompson has just been clattered by Elder, could easily have been a yellow later in the game.

We can do without that... Magennis goes down in the box after some jostling with Edwards. Ref not interested in his protests.

Nice start from Posh, sliding tackle in the centre of the pitch from Dembele on Docherty, wins it and tries to feed in Grant, just doesn’t have the pace to get there.

Ten minutes to go until kick-off. Posh will be keen not to fall to a 7th straight away defeat. The last time they did was between December and February 2009-2010 when Mark Cooper’s (among others) men were relegated from the Championship. The club record is 8.

Posh go unchanged, which does mean the three centre backs and two defensive midfielders remain in place against a side who have failed to score in eight of their 12 league outings. Time will tell if that’s over-cautious or not, perhaps will play with more intent but neither Darragh or Fergie will want a repeat of Saturday’s no shots on target.

Hull make three changes with Josh Magennis coming in up front for Tyler Smith, Tom Huddlesstone replaces Richie Smallwood in central midfield and Greg Docherty replaces Andy Cannon in the same position. McCann got a lot of stick for changing the formation to a back four on Saturday for their defeat to Huddersfield when they had beaten Middlesbrough previously with a three.
