Peterborough United vs Ipswich Town: Posh face biggest test of the season
Posh face the biggest game of their season so far as the seemingly unstoppable Ipswich roll into town.
The Tractor Boys haven’t lost a league game since January 21 and that is the size of the task facing Posh if they want to guarantee being in the play-off places at 5pm.
They will most likely have to do it without Nathan Thompson and Joe Ward aswell.

Well that was a moment. Thompson and Burrows combine, Thompson saves a deep ball going out with a slide, it deflects back to Burrows in the box, he’s a few yards out but he takes an age to shoot and it’s eventually saved by the legs of Walton, rebound won’t fall for Posh.
