Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Peterborough will look to extend their winning run in all competitions to three games when they take on Cambridge United on Matchday 15. The Posh have been scoring goals for fun of late and they are likely to adopt yet another attack-minded approach against Cambridge. Forward Ricky-Jade Jones is widely expected to return to the starting XI after coming as a substitute in the EFL Trophy win over Crystal Palace U21.
The U’s, on the other hand, are on a five-game winning run in all competitions, but seeing that Peterborough are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we are not tempted to put our money on the away team. In their last encounter at Weston Homes Stadium Peterborough crushed Cambridge 5-0. Experienced midfielder James Brophy is widely expected to return to the starting XI after coming as a substitute in the EFL Trophy win over Chelsea U21.
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.
