LUKE ASHWORTH will start for Orient's reserves at Peterborough United on Wednesday afternoon - just hours after putting pen-to-paper on a two-and-a-half year contract at Brisbane Road.

19-year-old defender Ashworth is one of eight professionals in Dean Smith's starting line-up as the O's reserves look for their second totesport.com Combination victory of the season.

Trialist Cherno Samba, formerly of Millwall, Plymouth, Spanish side Cadiz and Finnish outfit FC Haka, is given a run-out up front, while the likes of Dean Morgan, Ryan Jarvis, Paul Terry and Charlie Daniels are also involved.

The game is being played at Peterborough's Woodlands training ground with a 1pm kick-off and a full match report will appear on leytonorient.com this afternoon.
