Peterborough United host Charlton Athletic in the first home league game of the season (August 12, 3pm).

Posh host a side managed by a former captain, Dean Holden, and one that are fancied to do well this season after making a series of good additions over the summer.

Alfie May is among them but so if Lloyd Jones, both memorable to Posh fans for matches at home last season but in very different ways.

Will Posh have Ephron Mason-Clark fit?

Key Events

Tomlinson, De Havilland and Tshimanga on

Burrows, Fuchs and Poku off

Posh are down to ten as we play on, Fuchs is not coming back on

Daniel Kanu and Charlie Kirk on

Payne and Anderson

Fuchs down injured in the corner, looks to be as a result of a late challenge.

Three at the back for Posh now, Kioso and Burrows wing backs, Knight rcb.

Just like that, good chance Posh comes and goes. The defence aeemingly partsats the ball bobbles around on the edge of the box and JCH runs onto it aon the edge of thje box, free shot. Maynard-Brewer is stranded on the right of his goal but he drags the effort well wide.

Randall off, Josh Knight on

Posh rely on their keeper this time, Camara slips May in on the left edge of the box, Bilokapic out well to narrow the angle and save with his legs.

Charlton starting to really worry now. Blackett-Taylot again on the left, cuts inside and fires acurling effort at goal, only just wide but any kind of touch from the boides it goes through and surely that’s 1-1.

Fuchs on for Jones.

Collins pushes up behind JCH.

Charlton bring on Edun for Thomas at the back.
