Shrewsbury and Peterborough United will be searching for their first points of the League One season when they face off at New Meadow this weekend.

The Shrews suffered a 1-0 defeat at Stevenage Town on the opening day of the campaign, and registered just a single shot on target in 90 minutes.

Paul Hurst's side then needed penalties to get the better of League Two outfit Notts County in the first round of the Carabao Cup on Tuesday, but the Shrewsbury boss will be hoping that success can breed confidence.

Peterborough are among the leading fancies to win promotion after reaching the play-offs in 2023/24, although a 2-0 home defeat to relegated Huddersfield Town was the worst possible way to start.

Posh boss Darren Ferguson is working with an overhauled squad after losing a number of key figures including Harrison Burrows, Jonson Clarke-Harris and Ronnie Edwards over the summer, and there is work to be done after exiting the Carabao Cup in midweek.
