Peterborough United vs Yeovil Town preview - No worries for Posh

Posted Friday, January 30, 2015 by PA

Peterborough have no new problems as they prepare to host Yeovil.

Posh boss Darren Ferguson, who will serve the second game of his two-match touchline suspension, will be able to call on Aaron Mclean after the Bradford striker returned on loan to the ABAX Stadium for the remainder of the season.

Therefore, it is expected to be an unchanged squad as goalkeeper Ben Alnwick (thigh), winger Jon Taylor (knee) and long-term absentee Jack Baldwin (knee) are no nearer returning from their respective injuries.

Meanwhile, Gaby Zakuani remains away on international duty after DR Congo reached the knock-out stages of the African Nations Cup.

Yeovil goalkeeper Jed Steer will make his last appearance of his loan stay with the Glovers when they make the trip.

The Aston Villa loanee will start against Posh and make his 17th appearance for the Sky Bet League One side before being recalled by Villa boss Paul Lambert.

Goalkeper Chris Weale is sidelined with a foot injury so that leaves Artur Krysiak and goalkeeping coach Gareth Stewart as Yeovil's only fit shot-stoppers from Sunday - meaning boss Gary Johnson could dip into the loan market again.

Johnson has already borrowed Mansfield midfielder Fergus Bell this week and he is in line for a Yeovil debut but centre-back Ben Nugent is suspended.
