Peterborough v Bristol Rovers (Home evens - Draw 9/4 - Away - 9/4)

New Posh signings Justin Richards, Simon Yeo, Richard Butcher, Jude Stirling, Guy Branston and Mark Bailey are all pushing for inclusion against Bristol Rovers.

Rovers coach Paul Trollope has no injury concerns and may hand debuts to new acquisitions Ryan Green, Andy Sandell, Ollie Barnes and Steve Phillips.

Skysports.com prediction: 0-1

Peterborough have made some good signings this season as have Bristol. Should be a top game, 2 - 2.

Alexander after the game...

Solid Posh impress boss Alexander
Peterborough boss Keith Alexander felt his side "looked solid all over the park" as they beat Bristol Rovers 4-1.
"We were excellent from start to finish apart from the five minutes after the restart, where you would expect them to come at us," Alexander said.

"It's probably the best opening day win I've had for a while but leagues aren't won on how you do in the first game.

"Many a team have won the first game and gone on to do nothing, but I was very pleased with the performance."
