Peterborough United form and stats

4-4-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Championship numbers at home for Peterborough United so far this season.

A nice win for Peterborough last time playing, versus Bristol Rovers. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-1 with Szmodics and Mumba scoring for the victors. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of Ferguson when Mumba scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 46th minute.

Prior to that, an away loss at Blackpool in the Championship.

Peterborough has scored 14 league goals at home this season, in 11 matches. Peterborough have conceded 11 in these home matches.

A 0-1 loss hosting Millwall before that.
