Posh come into this off the back of another disappointing away performance at Coventry, losing 3-0, but can take heart from the fact that they were exceptional in their last home outing against Birmingham, winning 3-0 on that occasion.

Bournemouth, meanwhile, come into the match looking to reclaim the top spot they lost to West Brom last night (September 28). The Cherries are yet to lose in the league this year and have a range of attacking threats Posh need to be wary of.

Thompson overstretches in a challenge with Solanke, he’ stays down and that allows Solanke the room to drive into the box but his shots is straight into Cornell’s hands from a tight angle.

Rogers takes to the near post, Solanke heads into the side-netting. Posh can’t get out, poor start to the second half.

Poor start ot the second half for Posh. They can't get out, Thompson gives away another corner.

Bournemouth free-kick 30 yards out. Norburn halls down Solanke from the ground. Trouble started by Thomspon for running right into Rogers and Billing and losing the ball. Free-kick well-headed out though.

Corner taken short, then speared into Brooks, who had got free from his marker on the edge of the box. Horrible finish though and it almost goes over the stand.

Posh just sitting back in the opening few minutes, Zemura looks to get in on the overlap on the left but a crunching challenge from Burrows stops him. He gets up and berates his teammates.

Butler awkwardly lands on his back after a challenge in the air with Solanke. Gets up though and looks to be ok.

I think you’d take that. Posh have competed well, stood up defensively and even created the odd moment of their own. They could do more in attacking areas but a 0-0 draw against Bournemouth, without being troubled too much, is a very good half.
