Peterborough waiting on top scorer Jack Marriott
Posted Friday, January 26, 2018 by PA
Peterborough hope to have top-scorer Jack Marriott available for Saturday’s FA Cup fourth-round tie at home to Leicester.
Marriott pulled up during the warm-up before Peterborough’s EFL Trophy defeat to Lincoln on Tuesday with a thigh strain, but the striker is expected to available this weekend.
If Marriott is not passed fit, Junior Morias could come in.
George Cooper and Joe Ward are both cup-tied while Gwion Edwards is also out with an ankle injury.
Robert Huth and Danny Simpson could both be back in the Leicester squad.
Central defender Huth has yet to play this season having undergone ankle
surgery in the summer while full-back Simpson has recovered from the hamstring injury that has kept him on the sidelines recently. Captain Wes Morgan (hamstring) remains out, though.
Foxes boss Claude Puel made eight changes in the previous round against
Fleetwood and he is expected to rotate his squad once again. New signing
Fousseni Diabate could be in line to make his debut.
