Our prediction for this Championship match:
Weston Homes Stadium will host Saturday’s football match between Peterborough United and Stoke City. The Posh did well to hold Bournemouth to a draw on Tuesday evening, but they are still seven points behind the safe zone. The rock-bottom side face yet another must-win situation against Stoke, and they are likely to leave their hearts on the field. All Benda, Butler, Randall, and Thompson are expected to miss the game with injuries.
The Potters, on the other hand, head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Barnsley, and seeing that both sides are desperate to return to winning ways in the Championship, both teams to score betting option should be considered. Abdallah Sima and Harry Souttar should be the only absentees in the away side. In their last meeting at the venue Stoke defeated Peterborough 2-1 back in 2002.
