Posh slipped to 14th, nine points and eight places adrift of the play-off places after the Tuesday night games. A win against ‘The Brewers’ would move Ferguson’s side up to 10th.

A fully fit Hector Kyprianou would probably displace this midfielder, but he's been playing well. A good performance here would make the manager's selection for the Cobblers derby difficult. Photo: Joe Dent
