Team Previews, Form, and Standout Players

It’s hard to mention the form for this competition, since these sides have only competed in one round so far.

However, both sides have been in similar decent form in their respective league seasons.

Peterborough United Preview

Peterborough United Predicted Line-up - Nicholas Bilokapic; James Donnelly, George Nevett, Emmanuel Fernandez, Jack Sparkes; Archie Collins, Ryan De Havilland; Kwame Poku, Joel Randall, Abraham Odoh; Ricky-Jade Jones

Peterborough United have had a decent start to the season, and sit just six points outside the play-off places.

That being said, they were poor in their 2-1 defeat to Reading last time out.

Kwame Poku is for certain the player to watch here, he’s been in incredible form all season.

Notts County Preview

Notts County Predicted Line-up - Alex Bass; Lucas Ness, Jacob Bedeau, Matthew Platt; Nick Tsaroulla, George Abbott, Matt Palmer, Kellan Gordon; Jevani Brown, Alassana Jatta, David McGoldrick

Notts County will be very proud with how they’ve performed so far in League Two this season, given they’re just one point off an automatic promotion spot.

I wouldn’t expect too many changes to their line-up, except the addition of Jacob Beadau and Kellan Gordon to the side.

Alassana Jatta has looked lethal this season, and he’ll be looking to add a goal in this game.
