Peterborough United face Doncaster Rovers at the ABAX Stadium on Saturday needing a win to halt a five-match winless streak. The Posh sit 21st in League One with five points from six games, while their visitors are rooted to the bottom of the table.
Darren Ferguson's side have drawn three and lost two of their last five outings. Their most recent result was a dramatic 3-3 draw with Barnsley last weekend, where Harry Leonard and D. Ormerod were on the scoresheet. Before that, they earned a point at Milton Keynes Dons thanks to a Chris Conn-Clarke equaliser.
Doncaster arrive in poor form themselves, having lost their last three matches. They were beaten 1-0 by AFC Wimbledon in their previous fixture. The last meeting between these sides ended in a 2-1 victory for Doncaster at the Keepmoat Stadium last November.
Peterborough's recent fixtures have been high-scoring, with 11 goals conceded in their last three league games. They will look to tighten up at the back while hoping forwards like Leonard and Ormerod can continue their contributions. The full squad list shows Ferguson has options to change his lineup from the 4-2-3-1 shape used against Barnsley.
A victory would provide a vital boost ahead of a challenging run of games. Three points could lift Peterborough several places in the standings, moving them clear of the early-season relegation zone.
