Peterborough United travel to face Bristol Rovers at the Memorial Stadium in League One (November 19, 3pm).

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.

Finally some restbite for Posh, Ben Thompson bundled over right on the edge of the box.

80 mins 1-0 Rovers

Great save Bergstrom, made himself big from a close range Gibson shot after Collins had danced past a couple of men. Gibson should score the rebound but hacks it wildly over.

Knight on for Butler

77 mins 1-0 Rovers

Looked like Edwards got plenty of the ball, I’d love to see that again.

Well, that could be that. Ronnie Edwards is sent from the field after a sliding tackle just in front of the box on Coburn. He was the last man.

75 mins 1-0 Rovers

The triple chance hasn’t changed the course of the match at all. Still all Rovers.

70 mins 1-0 Rovers

Corner played in, Robers win the second ball and it’s a lovely ball floated up to Rossiter, who flicks only just wide.

69 mins 1-0 Rovers

Posh still being pushed back, good block required from Edwards to stop Collins from scoring after he had burst into the box.

64 mins 1-0 Rovers

Dear me, Bergstrom spills an incredibly weak Sinclair ball in the box right out into the box.

He’s lucky Fuchs is there to tidy up.

62 mins 1-0 Rovers

EMC goes off injured- replaced by JCH

Kyprianou and Marriott also off, Randall and Thompson on.
