Preview: Burnley vs. Peterborough United

Burnley go head to head with struggling Premier League outfit Peterborough United this Saturday as both sides try to pull themselves out of the bottom three.

The Clarets will be desperate to overcome their 2-1 defeat to Brighton Hove & Albion before the international break, while the Posh have yet to pick up a point this season.

With Peterborough under pressure to get their first win in the Championship, Darren Ferguson could turn to Craig Alcock to replace Kgosi Ntlhe in defence.

Meanwhile Burnley could line up with Charlie Austin at the front of the field, while Marvin Bartley is expected to hold the midfield.

Current form:

Burnley: WLLL
Peterborough: LLLL

Possible lineups:

Burnley: Grant; Trippier, Shackell, Edgar, Mills; McCann, Bartley, Marney; Stanislas, Austin, Stewart

Peterborough: Olejnik; Little, Brisley, Zakuani, Alcock; Swanson, McCann, Bostwick, Boyd; Tomlin, Barnett

Sports Mole says: 1-0
