Peterborough United host Reading in League One action on Boxing Day (December 26, 3pm).

Posh still sit second and have now won five of their last six league matches, drawing the other away at Stevenage.

Reading meanwhile sit 21st but have shown signs of life in recent weeks, beating Wigan on Saturday and winning three of their last six league matches and drawing two others.

Will Posh be tempted to make changes with Barnsley and Derby coming up?

LIVE: Posh vs Reading

Posh come back and Burrows tries an overhead kick of the own!

Randall's cut back is cut out but only as far as Burrows, who takes a touch in front of his defender and goes for his acrobatic effort, just wide of Button's near post.

EMC booked, brings down Mola.

Free-kick on the left leads to another dangerous ball in, headed out just about.

Well maybe not, ball fired in from Azeez after Burrows had launched himself at him and completely missed.

Knight comes out to head it away but he slips over and the header skews to Elliott, he passes it back to Smith with Bilokapic out of position. The striker flicks the ball up and fires an overhead kick at goal, just over let off.

Posh back on the front foot now.

Knight just runs half the length of the pitch, jinking past three or four but can't pick out a man when it's time to pass on the edge of the box.

Great finish EMC. Almost on the floor on the box he manages to generate enough power to get it under Button before the keeper can get down. Burrows slipped the ball into the box.

Brilliant effort from Azeez 25 yards out, crashes back off the post.

Not really sure how that's gone in.

Azeez sends in a low cross towards Smith, theres a bit of a scramble and the ball ends in trickling over the line. May well have hit Bilokapic on the back

Either Sam Smith or a Knight own goal
