Peterborough United host Oxford United in League One action on Saturday (March 31, 3pm).

Posh know that a win today and they are definitely in the play-offs due to the fact Bolton contest the EFL Trophy final this weekend.

Derby also host Ipswich but Posh must focus on the job in hand, beating an Oxford side that are winless in 11.

Ten of those were under old boss Karl Robinson, however, rather than new boss Liam Manning, who takes charge of his second game.

Key Events

  • 3pm kick-off
  • Victory takes Posh into the play-offs
  • Ronnie Edwards back in contention
  • Oxford have not win in 11 league matches

Ogbeta cross, straight to Eastwood. Quality of cross has been poor today.

Butler on for Thompson

Wing backs presumably. Butler in at LCB

Played short, Poku cross blocked, try again.

Another corner, this is just can Posh find a way through now.

First time Posh tried to take it, the linesman tripped Ward over!

Second time comes to nothing, overhit.

Oisin Smyth on for Murphy.

Another break as Brannagan stays down, Oxford starting to slow the game down.

The crowd just starting to get frustrated, Oxford keep their shape well and get into it quickly, they’re started to get deeper and Posh don’t look like they have the answers.
