Peterborough – Cheltenham preview: latest form, news, and potential lineups
Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for this duel, including our predicted Peterborough vs Cheltenham lineups.
Peterborough
Peterborough stopped their 3-game losing streak in the league with a scrappy 1-1 home draw vs Leyton Orient. Took the lead early in this match but conceded shortly after and failed to rally again after that.
Posh started the season with 3 consecutive league wins but they’ve earned just 1 point from their last 4 league matches.
The only constant contributor so far had been playmaker Kyprianou. He scored 3 goals in the last 5 rounds. However, now the Cypriot is serving a ban. Summer signing De Havilland could start in his place.
Other summer signings, like Katongo and Wakeling, could also be considered for full debuts. Randall and Crichlow were benched on Saturday but both are likely to start again now.
Predicted Lineup:
Bilokapic (GK), Kioso, Katongo, Crichlow, Burrows, Collins, De Havilland, Wakeling, Randall, Epson-Clark & Clarke-Harris
Cheltenham
Cheltenham’s struggles continued with a 0-1 away defeat vs Exeter on Saturday. Once again showed very little in attack and Cheltenham are the only team in League One yet to score. Naturally, this lack of cutting-edge brought only 1 point from 7 games.
The selection issues continue to pile up with as many as 5 players considered doubtful for this midweek encounter. This is on top of the fact that the main striker Lloyd and the duo of starting wing-backs Smith and D’Auria Henry face long spells on the sideline.
Predicted Lineup:
Southwood (GK), Long, Bevan, Freestone, J. Williams, Sercombe, Chapman, B. Williams, Ferry, Street & Malcolm
Starting Lineups
The teams usually announce their starting lineups one hour before the start of the game.
Player to Watch: Jovan Malcolm
Cheltenham are the only team in the entire division yet to score. To address that they loaned in striker Jovan Malcolm right before the transfer window shut. Malcolm was the only dangerous player for Cheltenham on his full debut.
Now with an extra week of getting to know his teammates, Malcolm should feel even more comfortable. Could he be the one to finally end Cheltenham’s goal drought?
