Watford v Posh: The Match Preview

Posted on: Fri 12 Mar 2010

Peterborough United travel to Vicarage Road on Saturday afternoon to face a Watford side who have suffered a mixed bag of results of late.

Posh have yet to win away from home this term and manager Jim Gannon is hoping that record can be ended this weekend when his side tackle the Hornets.

TEAM NEWS

Posh are without the services of midfielder Lee Frecklington (calf) and Chris Whelpdale (groin), while Ryan Bennett is still around two weeks away from full fitness. Reuben Reid and Josh Simpson return to the squad.

Winger Will Buckley could also be added to the squad for the first time since joining from Rochdale. Buckley has been sidelined with a thigh injury but got another reserve run-out under his belt this week.

Jay DeMerit, Adrian Mariappa and Danny Graham all shook off minor knocks to play in Saturday's defeat by Swansea and came through unscathed.

Tom Cleverley returns from suspension to take his place in midfield.

MANAGER QUOTES

'Watford are a side that can mix it up a bit, they have had a bit of rough set of results, but on their day they can cause anyone problems. I watched the DVD from the game earlier in the season and you can see why Watford concede goals and it is up to us to exploit that,' Gannon said.

BETTING

If you fancy Posh to break their duck away from home, then you can back them at 4/1 via www.theposhbet.com. Tommy Rowe is priced at 22/1 to score the first goal.
