Peterborough United manager Darren Ferguson has told his players that they will face a stiff test in Saturday's match against bottom club Stevenage.

Graham Westley's men have picked up just six points from their last six matches, and have lost seven at home so far this season.

However, Ferguson says that his side will have to be at their best to come away from the Lamex Stadium with maximum points.

"Stevenage play a particular way, they've got high energy and we're going to have to match that," Ferguson told reporters.

"When we get the ball, we're going to have to play good football - that will be the key. It's always a difficult game at Stevenage and I don't expect anything different on Saturday."

Posh are currently just inside the playoff places in League One.
