Peterborough United vs Rochdale - Peterborough pair Jack Baldwin and Chris Forrester return to face Rochdale

Posted Friday, April 08, 2016 by PA

Jack Baldwin and Chris Forrester return to contention for Peterborough as they prepare to host Rochdale.

Baldwin has recovered from a knock and could be restored in central defence following the defeat to Fleetwood on Tuesday night.

Midfielder Forrester was suffering with exhaustion after last weekend's win against Crewe but he is now refreshed and ready to come back after sitting it out at Highbury.

Posh boss Graham Westley has said he wants more points on the board before considering handing further opportunities to some of his fringe players, so the likes of Adil Nabi, Tom Nichols and Callum Chettle look likely to miss out.

Rochdale boss Keith Hill has no new injury or suspension problems and will select his side from an unchanged squad.

Forward Ian Henderson sits out the second game of a four-match ban and striker Calvin Andrew remains a long-term absentee due to a foot injury.

Midfielder Matty Lund (hamstring) shook off injury in time to return to the bench last week and Reuben Noble-Lazarus (hip) is also back in contention.

Hill's side, eight points adrift of the top six, require a win if they are to keep their outside play-off hopes alive.
