“Peterborough are a very good side with excellent individuals,” Lovell said. “You have to respect the number of goals Jack Marriott has scored and Marcus Maddison is a top player with a great left foot.

“Peterborough can be very good, but they also be not very good at all. League One is much of a muchness this season. We can all beat each other, but we are confident we can extend our good run at home.”

Posh could recall midfielder Michael Doughty to the starting line-up.
