They will also look to make up for a dispiriting 4-0 defeat ay Blackpool on Saturday. That result and performance means changes should be made, three of them according to the PT who are also hoping a new centre-back has arrived in time to play.
1. ALEX BASS
I'm keeping the faith with one of the stars of last season. He must improve though as the current back-up number one Collin Andeng Nda is decent. Photo: Joe Dent
2. CARL JOHNSTON
I trust the right-back was withdrawn 15 minutes from the end at Blackpool as a precaution as his bite and toughness will be needed against physical opponents. Photo: Joe Dent
3. EVAN WEIR
Posh will need their most robust defenders against physical opponents so Weir gets the nod over Harley Mills at left-back. Photo: s
4. JOSH FEENEY (right)
If he's been signed in time play him. The sooner an organised, error-free defence is found and nurtured the better. He's right footed I'm told. David Okagbue is a trier, but his form has been suspect. (Photo by Warren Little/Getty Images) Photo: Warren Little
