Posh are ready to face Huddersfield Town at the Weston Homes Stadium for their first Sky Bet League One game of the season. The match is set to take place at 5:30 pm, and fans are eagerly anticipating an exciting game between the two teams.
Darren Ferguson’s team is looking to kick off the new campaign on a positive note after a successful pre-season. However, they are facing some fitness concerns, particularly with newly-appointed captain Hector Kyprianou, who is dealing with a knee injury. If Kyprianou is unable to play, Archie Collins is expected to step in as the skipper.
On the other hand, Huddersfield Town, under the leadership of Michael Duff, is considered one of the favorites for promotion back to the Championship. The team has made some notable signings during the summer, including Herbie Kane, who previously worked with Duff at Barnsley.
One player to watch out for in the upcoming match is Antony Evans, an attacking midfielder who has had stints at various clubs before joining Huddersfield Town. Evans has a strong track record and will be looking to make an impact on the field.
In terms of ticket news, the crowd is expected to exceed 10,000, with Huddersfield close to selling out their allocation. Posh fans can purchase tickets in specific sections of the stadium, and tickets can be bought online or in person at the Weston Homes Stadium Ticket Office.
For overseas fans, match passes will be available for purchase to watch the game live. However, due to a new Sky TV deal, match passes will not be available in the UK. Additionally, a new fan zone near the Ticket Office will be open from 2 pm, providing fans with various activities and entertainment options before the game.
To enhance the matchday experience, a team of ASK POSH staff will be available two hours before kick-off to assist supporters with any inquiries they may have. Whether it’s about finding a specific location in the stadium or purchasing merchandise, the ASK POSH team is there to help.
As the match approaches, supporters are reminded that the turnstiles will open at 4 pm, and parking is recommended at the Fair Meadow Car Park or other alternative car parks in the city. Following the game, the Town Bridge will be temporarily closed to traffic for approximately 30 minutes due to the high attendance at the stadium.
The match will be officiated by referee Sunny Singh Gill, adding to the excitement of the highly anticipated game between Posh and Huddersfield Town.
