Posh are already likely to be without skipper Ephron Mason-Clark after he limped out of Saturday’s League One win at Reading so they can ill afford any more injuries ahead of a tough home game with Charlton Athletic on Saturday.
The PT would only pick two players who started at Reading.
Our team in a 4-2-1-3 formation...

5. ROMONEY CRICHLOW
Even a makeshift defence needs balance and natural left-footer Crichlow provides it in a centre-back pairing. Photo: Joe Dent

6. JEANDO FUCHS
Let us see if Fuchs can play the passing game desired by his manager. There can be no doubting his ball-winning capabilities. Photo: Joe Dent

7. RYAN DE HAVILLAND
The summer signing was surprisingly left out of the matchday squad on Saturday so should get a run out in midfield here. No need to risk the current first-choice midfielders Hector Kyprianou and Archie Collins. Photo: Joe Dent

8. JOEL RANDALL
He's barely played for two years so now he's broken into the starting line-up he should keep playing. A first Posh goal would do him the world of good. Photo: Joe Dent
