PIMS Park, home of Peterborough Sports

Posh continue their preparations for the new Sky Bet League One campaign with a trip to nearby Peterborough Sports on Tuesday evening (7.45pm).

Peterborough United make the short trip to Pims Park to face Peterborough Sports on Tuesday evening for a pre-season friendly (7.45pm) with the Enterprise National League side facing their second Sky Bet League One side in a few days following a visit from Doncaster Rovers on Saturday. 

Sports proved to be a tough test for Grant McCann's side with the game ending in a 1-1 draw. Posh were 1-0 winners at Ipswich Town in a behind closed doors friendly on Saturday with Bradley Ihionvien on target.

TEAM NEWS

Posh are expected to start with the team that played the final 30 minutes against the Tractor Boys with Ihionvien, Abraham Odoh, Cian Hayes and Nick Bilokapic set to be part of that XI. 

Defender Sam Hughes is nearing a return to match action after a minor operation during the summer but won't feature against Sports with Rio Adebisi and Will Blackmore also ruled out.

Sports strengthened their squad with the arrival of former Posh front man Shaquille Coulthirst last week and he is expected to play against his former side. 

MANAGER QUOTES

"There were plenty of positives from the weekend game against Ipswich and we will look to take that into this game against Peterborough Sports, who are always very competitive. It is another opportunity for our supporters to see us in action locally and I am sure it will be a good crowd," Darren Ferguson said.

TICKET INFORMATION

Tickets in advance are priced at £8 for adults with Under 18s admitted FREE of charge. The price rises to £11 for adults on the night with children still admitted for free.
