Prediction: 2-0
Peterborough
High-flying Birmingham City will look to overtake Wrexham in top position when they face Peterborough on Matchday 8. The Blues are determined to extend their winning run to six games, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. A man to watch in the home team will be talented forward Jay Stansfield, who has found his goal-scoring touch of late, while there are no fresh injury worries in Chris Davies’ team.
Meanwhile, the Posh aim to climb to the playoffs berth, but given Birmingham City’s fine form at St. Andrew’s Stadium, we predict that the visitors are going to return home with their hands empty. As for the visiting side, Oscar Wallin is a major doubt after limping off with injury in a 2-2 draw with Leyton. Republic of Ireland teenage Sam Curtis is the main candidate to replace Wallin in the starting eleven.
