Prediction: 1-1
Peterborough
Tuesday’s football game at Montgomery Waters Meadow pits together Shrewsbury Town and Peterborough United, the two teams who are eyeing promotion to the Championship. The Shrews sit in the 12th position in the standings ahead of the midweek fixture, but they are only five points behind the play-offs berth. Shrewsbury Town did well to beat Sunderland in their last home game in the League One, which is giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the visit of Peterborough United.
The Posh suffered a 4-3 loss at Blackpool at the weekend, but it has to be noted that they scored two own goals in the defeat to the Seasiders. Peterborough United have been producing promising performances in the first half of the season, and they are definitely capable of grabbing something from the midweek clash against Sam Rickets’ charges.

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.
