Peterborough United host Millwall in the Championship clash at the Weston Homes Stadium (December 11, 3pm).

Posh will be desperate to stop a run of seven matches without a win and five without a goal. They will need to in order to avoid getting cut further than five points adrift of safety.

Millwall sit in 8th, just four points off the play-offs but have only the 16th best away record in the league.

Finally Tomlinson comes on.

Butler limps to the sideline, Tomlinson looks like he will come on in his place it seems, but he’s limping on. Strange one. He can’t move.

Big 50-50 between McNamara and Butler, both slide in. The Posh full-back looks to have come off the worse.

Eatly possession for Posh. Burrows sends a ball through, Szmodics gets on the end of ot but can’t connect well enough and it’s easily claimed by the keeper on the left edge of the box.

Early shot from Taylor, just curling over. Good work from Dembele in the build-up had to battle for that.

Immediate signs it’s a four, with Taylor at a dip of a diamond.

As well at the Clarke-Harris omission, the other interesting thing to note on the teamsheet is that Norburn is listed as captain. Not Thompson, certainly a point to note.
