On Sky
Peterborough United will be looking to further restore their tag of ‘giant killers’ as they take on Everton at London Road this season.
How we see it
Before the announcement yesterday, POSH had been indifferent in the league and not full of confidence.
A new owner and a club now swimming in cash and the unlikely upset looks a little more possible.
Peterborough United Team News:
POSH manager Keith Alexander could be tempted to go a little more defensive this evening.
A tight match is more likely to go Peterborough’s way, but with the ‘direct’ style POSH play will mean that they might not get possession too often.
Player to watch: Trevor Benjamin
Leading scorer and beginning in flashes to show the form that made him a million pound footballer.
Everton Team News:
Everton are taking this match more seriously than a number of Premiership clubs would do and are expected to line up close to full strength.
Richard Wright is to play in goal.
Player to watch: James Beattie
We have been tipped off that the England striker is going to play. A measure of how seriously David Moyes is taking the match.
