Our prediction for this League 1 match:
All eyes will be on Weston Homes Stadium when Peterborough and Bristol Rovers go head to head in the League One round 7. The Posh aim to move closer to the playoffs berth and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-minded approach in Saturday’s showdown. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of the visit of Bristol Rovers.
Meanwhile, the Pirates experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-0 loss to Wigan Athletic and given their difficulties at the back, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the playoffs-chasing hosts. In their last meeting at the venue Peterborough defeated Bristol Rovers 2-0, which goes in favour of our earlier prediction. To make things even more complicated for the away team, talented midfielder Jake Garrett limped off with injury in the last league fixture.
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.
