Peterborough United: Live Blog as Posh look to bounce back to winning ways in League One against Bristol Rovers
Posh will look to build on the positives of the midweek win over Salford to help Posh forget about last weekend’s collapse at Exeter.
It’s another long trip though and Posh are hoping to have Jonson Clarke-Harris back in their ranks after illness to face his former side.
Joey Barton has been typically outspoken in the build-up, mainly about his strikers.
Find out on the PT live blog below to see which pair come out on top.

Oh wow, Ricky has a great chance. A poor Gordon header skews behind him and ends Burrows away on a run, he plays a diagonal ball to Jones in the box on the right. He has time to set himself but puts the ball far too close to Belshaw for a comfortable save as he tries to go across him.

Just like that, it could have been 2. Rovers break, Evans brings it all the way into the box beating off a couple of weak tackles. He dallies too long though and Ben Thompson slides in from behind to deny him .Great play.

JCH should score.
Burrows fizzes in the free-kick. JCH gets free of his marker and just needs a touch to put it in the net but he can’t provide it.
