Peterborough United are ready for a 'Super Saturday' in League One

It’s a ‘Super Saturday’ in League One at both ends of the table.

The teams in the bottom 10 are playing each other and Peterborough United could end up anywhere between 17th and 21st after they’ve taken on next-to-bottom Shrewsbury Town at the Weston Homes Stadium.

Burton Albion are the only team who can overtake Posh tomorrow. Darren Ferguson’s side would need to lose and Burton would need to win at home to a completely out-of-form Mansfield Town side, or win by a five-goal margin should Posh draw.

Posh can get past Bristol Rovers, Exeter City and Northampton Town tomorrow. Exeter host Cobblers so a draw there and a defeat or draw for Bristol Rovers at home to Rotherham United would see Posh jump up to 17th, if they see off ‘The Shrews!’

Crawley, who are 22nd, tackle rock-bottom Cambridge United at home. Crawley are five points behind Posh, while Cambridge are eight points from safety.

At the other end of the table, top two Birmingham City and Wycombe Wanderers clash at St Andrew’s. Other big promotion battles include Wrexham v Bolton Wanderers and Leyton Orient v Charlton.
