Peterborough United will be boosted by the presence of Callum Morton for the first time since his arrival as they travel to face Birmingham City in a Championship fixture at St Andrews this evening (January 25, 7:45pm).

Posh will also have the chance to record their first league double of the season after dispatching the Blues 3-0 at home in September.

Birmingham come into the match amidst rumours about manager Lee Bowyer’s position and unrest from the fans at the poor ownership and lack of direction the club seems to have.

JACK IS BACK. Great finish one-on-one from Marriott, he scores it on the slide but that goal is Poku. He makes a tackle on the edge of his own box, runs the length of the field with the ball and slides in Marriott at the perfect moment.

Woah, nearly something for Posh. Burrows umps in a free-kick. Keeper is miles from the ball but coems out and tries to claim. He’s left stranded but the ball just won’t fall to a Posh shirt an is scrambled clear.

Free-kick goes into the box and Pedersen is found all on his own, can’t put it on target though, dragged wide. Let off for Posh.
