Posh have drawn their last two but are in need of wins if they are to overhaul the seven points that currently seperates them from Championship safety.

They will be boosted in this pursuit by the fact that Sammie Szmodics is fit to return from injury.

Russell Martin brings his inconsistent Swans into the match sitting 16th in the table.

LIVE: Posh vs Swansea

Key Events

  • 7:45pm kick-off
  • Sammie Szmodics back from injury
  • Joel Randall to see a specialist
  • Posh unbeaten in their last two matches
  • Ryan Bennett could feature for the Swans

Knight tries another of his runs. Ended abruptly by Naughton’s shoulder barge. Yellow card.

Swansea hold such a high line for the freekick, which is on half way and Cabango heads it away.

Knight has been kicked in the centre circle by Piroe. Ref plays advantage but when does Posh lose the ball, he lets play go on despite Knight still being injured. When Posh win it back and try to come forward. He stops it. Ridiculous.

He’s ok after a couple of minutes treatment.

Posh have stabilised after all the Swansea pressure after the Posh goal. The press has come back and Swansea haven’t had the time on the ball they wanted. The passes in the final third aren’t getting through though and the chances have dried up.

Kyle Joseph comes on for Obafemi up top.

Posh are missing Jones badly, it’s been a real blow. He was getting Posh up the pitch and Swansea were scared of him.

Joe Taylor replaces JCH just as Cabango gets a yellow card for pulling back Jack Taylor as he was trying to break.

Now Posh take the initiative after conceding. Ward sends in two dangerous corners. Cabango has to head the first off the head of JCH.

Posh lose the ball in the midfield. Swansea play it out to Paterson in acres of space on the left. He crosses onto the head of Piroe whose header is pushed away but only to Obafemi to tap it in from a few yards out.
