Johnson set to tinker

Yeovil boss Gary Johnson could shuffle his pack as he prepares to welcome former club Peterborough to Huish Park.

Johnson, who was in charge of Posh for just 33 matches, watched his side earn a 1-1 draw against Crewe on Tuesday after a triple substitution and Kieffer Moore, Nathan Ralph and Seth Twumasi will all hope to have done enough to earn starts.

Posh's visit looks to have come too soon for Yeovil's string of injured players. James Hayter, James Berrett, Liam Davis, Brendan Moloney and Simon Gillett are all sidelined and unlikely to return to action.

And the Glovers will assess captain Joe Edwards, who has been suffering with a bruised foot.

Defender Christian Burgess and winger Jon Taylor are injury doubts for Peterborough.

Both players are nursing ankle knocks following the midweek defeat at Gillingham, with the Posh medical staff awaiting the results of scans.

Joe Newell is set to start in midfield while centre-half Gaby Zakuani will return to the squad.

Left-back Kgosi Ntlhe is nearing a return from a groin injury and the South African will continue to be monitored ahead of Saturday's game, but Michael Bostwick, Erhun Oztumer and Nathaniel Mendez-Laing remain sidelined.
