The encounter begins a 17-day period in which they will face five League One matches, including a trip to local rivals Millwall just before Christmas.
The Addicks should come into the weekend match-up with some confidence behind them. An injury and illness-hit squad performed admirably at fourth-placed Bradford City last weekend and, in midweek, a young side enjoyed some good spells in the Emirates FA Cup against Milton Keynes Dons.
What’s more, Charlton have only tasted defeat at The Valley twice in the league all season should they earn three points at the weekend, it would be their fifth win from last seven SE7 encounters.
The Posh, though, are likely to provide a difficult test. They currently sit sixth in the League One table and recorded a 5-2 win over Chesterfield in their last game.

For Peterborough, Marcus Maddison could return to their squad after an ankle ligament injury but Jack Baldwin will miss out with a knee problem.
One of those victories came in the two clubs' most recent meeting, which was in August 2015. The Addicks, fielding their youngest ever XI, earned a 4-1 win in the Capital One Cup and - in the same game - netted their Goal of the Season for 2015/16 when Ahmed Kashi scored from the halfway line.
The Posh have recorded four wins against Charlton before, while there have also been four draws.
So far this season, he has overseen 21 matches – in five different competitions - where he has brandished 91 yellow cards and five reds.
