Posh welcome Lincoln City to the Weston Homes Stadium on Saturday afternoon (3pm).
Peterborough United are back in Sky Bet League One action on Saturday as Darren Ferguson's men entertain Lincoln City at the Weston Homes Stadium (3pm).
After back-to-back victories against Wycombe Wanderers and Plymouth Argyle, Posh moved off the foot of the table and will be looking to continue their momentum against an Imps side that were beaten 2-1 by Chelsea at the LNER Stadium in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday evening.
Michael Skubala's side have had an excellent start to the campaign and were 3-1 winners over Luton Town in their last league fixture after a superb first half display.
TEAM NEWS
Posh welcome back Abraham Odoh from injury, while Klaidi Lolos and Kyrell Lisbie have recovered from illness and are available for selection. Declan Frith has had an injury set-back and could be out for a month.
Sam Hughes and Rio Adebisi are still on track in terms of their rehabilitation from long-term injuries. Lincoln made changes to their starting line-up for the visit of Chelsea, so striker James Collins is expected to return to the XI.
ONE TO WATCH
Freddie Draper
Freddie Draper (pictured below) has been with the Imps since 2020 when he joined the Academy as a first year scholar.
Draper impressed throughout his two years in the Academy, playing a big role in two FA Youth Cup runs, which included a spectacular performance against Watford at the LNER Stadium. He made his debut against Sheffield Wednesday in October 2021 after signing his first professional deal in July.
Following successful loan stints with Drogheda United and Walsall, Draper returned to the Imps and has received regular League One minutes since.
MANAGER QUOTES
"I have watched quite a few Lincoln games and they are a very well organised side who are strong on transition and set-pieces. They are not too bothered if they have less of the ball. For us, we have to focus on our game and make the game how we want the game to be. We need to use the little bit of momentum that we have and keep that going. It will feel a bit like a derby with Lincoln fans behind the goal, but our supporters have been brilliant and were really important in our game against Wycombe last time out at home," Darren Ferguson said.
