Our prediction for this match: Peterborough 2 - 0 Burton
Peterborough vs Burton Preview
Peterborough United will be keen to build on their impressive 3-1 victory over Leicester City as they host Burton Albion, hoping to put further distance between themselves and the relegation zone. The Posh bounced back strongly from their defeat to Stockport, but defensive concerns remain after allowing Leicester 2.60 expected goals despite winning comfortably. With no fresh injury worries, the hosts should have a settled squad available as they look to maintain their momentum. Peterborough have averaged 1.83 goals per home game in their recent sample, which goes in favour of our main betting tip.
Burton, meanwhile, need a response after suffering consecutive defeats to Huddersfield Town and Doncaster Rovers. Changes could be on the cards, with Sibbick, Arubi and Adom all pushing for starting places as the Brewers look to freshen things up. Their away performances have been particularly disappointing in attack, and finding a way through Peterborough’s defence could prove difficult. Burton have scored just 0.40 goals per away game in their recent sample, a worrying statistic heading into this trip.
Peterborough have the momentum and home advantage, while Burton’s lack of away goals makes the visitors difficult to back. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is big value in betting on Home Win, alongside Peterborough Over 1.5 and Over 1.5 goals total.
