We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

Jorge Grant and Jonson Clarke-Harris scored in Peterborough United's previous match, the home game against Birmingham City that ended 3-0. Midfielder Jorge Grant was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 8.01. Grant scored one goal and dribled passed the opponent 2 of 3 times.
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Reading wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Peterborough playing away, we found one game. Results were zero away wins, zero draws and one home win.
