Forest v Posh: The Match Preview

Posted on: Fri 19 Mar 2010

Peterborough United travel to the City Ground on Saturday (3pm) looking to obtain their second away win of the campaign with opponents Nottingham Forest looking to keep up the pressure on the top two.

Liam Dickinson's superb strike earned the 1-0 win at Watford while Forest were beaten in their previous two away games, although they are in decent form in front of their own fans.

TEAM NEWS

Posh are without the services of midfielders Chris Whelpdale and Lee Frecklington for the fixture with Billy Davies' side, while doubts remain over the fitness of Aaron Mclean and Liam Dickinson. Ryan Bennett is still out with a groin injury.

George Boyd is ineligible for the fixture due to the terms of his loan agreement, while Forest have doubts over the fitness of Dextor Blackstock and James Perch. Paul McKenna, Julian Bennett and Joel Lynch are all out.

MANAGER QUOTES

'We have had a great season, even though over the last number of games away from home we have been indifferent. There's no reason to be down. We're not in a relegation battle and we are not in mid-table obsecurity,' Forest boss Billy Davies said.

BETTING

Posh are 6/1 to win the game, with Forest made clear favourites at 1/2. Craig Mackail-Smith is priced at 9/1 to score the first goal, while if you fancy Tommy Rowe to score, then he is priced at an attractive 25-1.
