Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Peterborough United and Rotherham United square off against each other at Weston Homes Stadium in what is expected to be a close League One encounter. The Posh aim to build on a 2-1 win over Stevenage, but Saturday’s clash will be anything but a walk in the park for the home side. The likes of Jadel Katongo, Rio Adebisi, and Mahamadou Susoho are all out of contention with injuries, while Hector Kyprianou is a major doubt.
The Millers, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Cambridge United and Reading, but seeing that Peterborough are tough to beat at home, we are tempted to put our money on draw. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to Cambridgeshire. Anyhow, we predict that the two sides are going to share the spoils at Weston Homes Stadium.
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.
