Posh are set to be boosted by the return on Ronnie Edwards and Mark Beevers but have now fallen to eight points adrift of safety, with only seven games to go.

Luton, meanwhile, who operate on a similar budget to Posh, are flying high in fourth and looking for another win to move their impossible dream of reaching the Premier League a step closer.

LIVE: Posh vs Luton

Key Events

  • 7:45pm kick-off
  • Edwards and Beevers likely to return to the squad
  • Norburn ruled out with torn ACL
  • Morton returns to West Brom with shoulder injury
  • Luton could go third with a win

Luton bring on a striker for a centre back. Sonny Bradley for Hylton.

Burrows sends a corner over everyone and ut for a throw. Hopeless.

My word. That’s absolutely unbelievable. Ward sends in a great ball to Jones arriving in the six yard box, He’s got a clear shot on goal just a few yards out but turns it wide even though he has the whole goal to aim at.

Posh are playing 4-3-3 now.

Bree takes the kick from the left, Posh with everybody back again, that hardly matters as they can’t even clear it out of the six yard box after about 5 attempts. A couple of blocked sohts later and it’s finally out.

Jones with a tellow now. Ward gives the ball away to Onyendima, Joens chases him all the way back but then fouls him.

Kent goes off for Szmodics. Change of formation here.

Posh are penned in now and from set peices are leaving nobody up, not sure how they plan to get out.

Bree makes a recovery and takes the free-kick himself. Posh win two headers and get it clear.

Great sliding tackle from Kent on Bree, right on the edge of the box on the right. Ref gives a yellow card though, unbelievable.
