Posh remain second in League One with 10 games remaining

Peterborough United boss Darren Ferguson says the injury situation at London Road could be improving at just the right time.

Posh have suffered a defender shortage in recent weeks, but faced Hartlepool on Saturday with only Craig Morgan missing from the back four.

Ferguson told BBC Radio Cambridgeshire: "I've got difficult decisions to make at the moment, because everyone is fit.

"But they're decisions I'm happy to make and we're looking pretty strong."

Morgan is expected to return in time for the visit of Northampton on Saturday, leaving only midfielder Lee Frecklington out with a hamstring injury.

Posh host Scunthorpe on Tuesday looking to cement their position in second place in League One.

"Scunthorpe are there or thereabouts, but we're at home and they'll have to come and have a go," Ferguson said.

"We've just got to hold our nerve and worry about ourselves - we can't influence what other sides do."
