Prediction: 0-2
Peterborough
High-flying Peterborough United will be aiming to extend their winning run to four games when they take on Burton at Pirelli Stadium. The Posh look unstoppable at the moment and, as a result, the bookies see them as hot favourites to win Saturday’s encounter. Barring any fresh injury worries, Darren Ferguson is unlikely to make changes to the team that crushed Northampton Town 5-1 at the weekend.
The Brewers, on the other hand, failed to find the net in the previous three league matches and seeing that Mason Bennett remains on the sidelines with injury, we are tempted to put our money on the in-form visitors. In their last meeting at the venue Peterborough rolled over Burton 5-2, which is yet another reason why we are going to bet on Darren Ferguson’s charges. Earlier this season Peterborough defeated Burton 4-0 at Weston Homes Stadium.
Highlighted Player (Jonson Clarke Harris):
The Leicester born striker started his career at Coventry City, joining their youth academy at the age of 15. Harris, who holds both the English and Jamaican citizenship, chose to represent the former but is yet to feature for any of England's international levels. He made his first professional debut on the 10th of August 2010, in a 2-0 League Cup loss to Morecambe, a feature that made him the youngest player to ever appear for Coventry.
After successive loan moves where he made little impact, Harris left the Sky Blues to join Oldham Athletic in May 2013 on a year-long contract. His excellence earned him the Young Player of the Season award and a high profile move to Rotherham United at the end of the season in a deal worth 350,000 euros. After several inconsistent performances, Harris left the Millers.
He then went on to play for MK Dons and Doncaster on loan before re-joining Coventry for a second spell where-in he helped the club in promoting to League One. Born on the 21st of July 1994, the 25-year-old is known for his physicality and hold-up play and currently plies his trade for Bristol, whom he joined at the start of 2019.
Highlighted Team (Burton):
Burton Albion are one of the four clubs that secure promotion to the Championship at the end of the 2015/2016 campaign. The Brewers welcome their rivals at Pirelli Stadium, the venue that was opened in 2005. The capacity of the stadium is 6,912, while the seating capacity of the venue is 2,034.
Burton Albion won the FA Trophy in 1987, with the team winning Football League Two in 2015. During the club’s non-League period, the Brewers’ local rivals were Nuneaton Borough, Tamworth, Stafford Rangers and Gresley Rovers, but while they were playing in the Football League the club’s rivals were Crewe, Port Vale, Notts County and Chesterfield.
Derby County are considered Burton Albion’s rivals as well, but the rivalry with the Rams is rather friendly. The colour of Burton Albion’s home kit is black and yellow, while they wear white and grey jerseys on the travels.
