Posh need to build on that momentum though with nothing but victory over lowly Cheltenham deemed acceptable as Posh try to close the gap further to the top six.
The PT has suggested just the one change to the line-up that beat Shrewsbury Town on Tuesday and that change comes about as another of Posh’s regulars is in need of a rest.
It’s still a 4-2-3-1 formation.
