Peterborough United travel to face Queens Park Rangers in the Championship (March 20, 12:30pm).

Victory would be Posh’s third over the same opponents this season after 2-1 and 2-0 wins in the league and FA Cup respectively.

They will have to do it without young star Ricky-Jade Jones though after he picked up a shoulder injury against Swansea.

The club will also have to be careful with Sammie Szmodics after he looked to limp off in the same game, having only just returned from injury.

  • QPR sign Keiren Westwood after goalkeeping crisis

HOW HAVE POSH NOT SCORED?

Poku great again, wins it on the left. Feeds Szmodics, Posh have a 3 on 1. Szmodics in one-on-one but hits is straight at the keeper. Joe Taylor had an open goal and he was a few yards to his right, all on his own.

We’ve had the 8 minutes but JCH was down for a couple of minutes into the 90.

Decent cross from Adomah, goes to Thomas at the backpost, who miscontrols. Phew.

Two banks of four for Posh. QPR still can’t find a way through though. Joe Taylor just wasted a good chunk of time with a good run and then held the ball in the corner.

Ball stuck in the midfield. Poku has won the ball excellently since coming on.

There will now be more like ten minutes.

Wow, it’s happened. Posh have now brought Joe Taylor on.

JCH now down holding his head. If he can get a concussion sub, this will be incredible.

Great block Ward. Stops McCallum’s cross and it goes off the QPR man for a goalkick.

Chair lashes a shot well over the bar from the edge of the box, which Posh are grateful for.

He really can’t move at all. This is a worry Posh are competing valiantly though. QPR have not found any quality in the final third though.

JCH is still holding his leg and doesn’t look like he can move. Posh effectively have ten men.

Now very much all QPR. Posh starting to slide backwards. There will now be a break as JCH has taken a whack in the back.

A spell of possession for QPR. Hendrick heads McCallum’s ball across the face of the goal. Just before that, Chair dives to try and win a penalty against Fuchs, ref not interested.

76 mins Posh sub 3-1 Posh

Final change as Poku comes on for Marriott.

QPR get a corner but Posh break straight away. Fuchs runs in over halfway, feeds Knight who is charging away to his right, he cuts past Dunne and tries to feed a through ball into Szmodics. Underhit though and cut out.
