Oliver Norburn is set to be in contention for a start after now appearing in matches, including u21 and first team, Hector Kyprianou would likely be the one to drop down to the bench in that case.

Ricky-Jade Jones will be in the squad after Posh found out that his injury was just a jarred knee rather than anything more serious

Expect Frankie Kent in the backline with Knight now suspended for 3 games.

Tasks don’t get much tougher than this in League One this season but Posh saw off Plymouth comfortably, can they do the same to the Owls?
