No Peterborough United fan needs reminding of the outcome the last time these sides played. So today faces quite a feat to live up to that.

Posh may be boosted by Kwame Poku’s first appearance of the season but the 20-year-old will face a late fitness test.

Lincoln put out of their misery. Fantastic from Posh.

Posh just keeping the ball. Low shot from Marriott easily saved.

Marriott has his hattrick chance. Long ball over the top, would it be anything else?

Takes a tough bounce for him and the keeper hesitates, he puts it past him but can’t catch up with his touch.

and Bergstrom is awake, Lincoln spring a surprise on Posh and Kendall gets in behind Knight.

He’s bearing down on Bergstrom before the keeper comes racing off his line to about a third of the way up the pitch to make the sliding tackle.

You almost want this to just end now, it’s been over as a contest for a long, long time.

Probably a good change, get some energy back in Posh, they have started to slow after putting so much in early, particularly Marriott.

Final change sees Joe Taylor replace JCH.

Lincoln keeping the ball for the last few minutes but in really unthreatening areas.
