Prediction: 2-1
Peterborough
Birmingham City will be aiming to build on a 2-1 win over Barnsley when they take on Peterborough United at St. Andrew’s Stadium on Tuesday evening. The Blues quickly bounced back from a 6-2 loss to Fulham, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence, but they want to keep on climbing the standings. Both Jordan James and Scott Hogan should retain their spots in the starting XI, while Ivan Sunjic and Jeremie Bela are likely to start from the bench.
The Posh, on the other hand, suffered yet another dip in form, and given their three-game losing run in the English second tier, we believe that punters from all four corners of the world can find value in betting on the hosts. Jack Marriott has overcome his injury, while Dan Butler remains in the recovery room. Idris Kanu is a major doubt, whilst Callum Morton is available for selection.
Highlighted Player (George Friend):
George Friend has played for no less than nine English clubs so far in his career. Friend made his first-team debut for non-League club Exeter City on April 17, 2006 in a goalless draw with Forest Green Rovers and he stayed at St James Park until 2008. After ending his loan spells with Tiverton Town and Team Bath he joined Wolverhampton, but he made no more than seven appearances for the Wolves in the league.
The 188-cm-tall left-back, who is capable of playing as a centre-back as well, played for the likes of Millwall, Southend, Scunthorpe United and Exeter City on loan during his spell with Wolverhampton and at the end of the 2009/2010 season he signed a two-year deal with Doncaster Rovers. Friend made his Doncaster debut on August 7, 2010 in a 2-0 win over Preston and after three years at the club he was sold to Middlesbrough for a fee of £100,000.
The left-footed defender has been playing for Boro ever since and you should know that he made 24 appearances for the club in the 2016/2017 Premier League campaign.
Highlighted Team (Peterborough):
Founded in 1934, Peterborough United are a professional club that competes in the League One. The Posh play their home games at London Road Stadium, the venue with the capacity of 15,314. Peterborough’s home colour is blue, whilst the colour of their away kit is blue. The Posh have the third kit as well where yellow and black are the dominant colours.
Peterborough United’s biggest success came in the 1964/1965 when the club booked their place in the FA Cup quarter-finals. Chelsea, though, proved to be a big catch for the Posh, beating them 5-1 in London. It has to be noted that Peterborough United made it to the Football League Cup semis in the 1965/1966 season, with the team losing to WBA in the two-legged tie.
The likes of Cambridge United and Northampton Town are considered the club’s main rivals. The Posh have built a rivalry with Huddersfield Town, with fans seeing MK Dons as rivals as well.
