Peterborough United vs Wrexham AFC Team News & Predicted Lineups

Both teams come into this game with a couple of injury issues to worry about.

The hosts will be without the services of Rio Adebisi and Ryan De Havilland who have suffered injuries. Manager Darren Ferguson will most likely start a similar team to the one that won narrowly against Exeter City last weekend.

Phil Parkinson will have George Evans missing with injury. However it isn’t all bad news as Ollie Rathbone and Paul Mullin could return to the matchday squads at the very least in this fixture.

Peterborough United - Jed Steer, Jack Sparkes, Oscar Wallin, Emmanuel Fernandez, Sam Curtis, Archie Finn Collins, Hector Kyprianou, Abraham Odoh, Joel Randall, Kwame Poku, Malik Mothersille

Wrexham AFC - Arthur Okonkwo, Ryan Barnett, Max Cleworth, Eoghan O'Connell, Thomas O'Connor, James McClean, Andy Cannon, George Dobson, Elliot Lee, Jack Marriott, Ollie Palmer

Peterborough United vs Wrexham AFC Player To Watch - Abraham Odoh

We would expect that this game will be a close fixture. One that could go either way. It will most likely take something special to give one of these teams the advantage in this game and if it is to come from anyone it will be Peterborough’s Abraham Odoh.

Odoh has proved to be one of the more creative players for The Posh this season so far picking up 3 assists in the opening 3 matches.

He will be looking to show his creative abilities yet again in this one and if he does he could be the difference maker between the two sides.
