Peterborough vs Shrewsbury Lineups, Analysis, and Latest Team News

Peterborough

Peterborough were way too passive on their visit to leaders Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday and as a result, they lost 0-1. Posh failed to even register a shot on target in this match, but it was against by far the best side in the league after all.

Knight misses suspended, while Watts is out for the season. Those are the only selection issues though and Peterborough have lots of choices if they want to rotate. Norburn is expected to be benched due to fatigue but rested at the weekend Ward and Kyprianou could start again now.

Shrewsbury

Shrewsbury showed great character on their visit to Derby last Saturday. The Shrews erased a 0-2 halftime deficit to earn a deserved point from this match. With 7 wins and just 1 defeat in the last 10 rounds, Shrewsbury are a team on the rise and they still believe they can catch the top 6.

The main left-back Nurse and the starting striker Udoh remain sidelined. The squad got used to playing without them already. Playmaker Phillips also might miss after sustaining a knock on Saturday. If he’s out the in-form Bayliss will be moved to an advanced position, while Whincester will start in the heart of the midfield.
