The League One season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between Northampton Town and Peterborough United promises to be an interesting one.
It's no vacation for neither Northampton nor Peterborough United as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Northampton Town form and stats
Northampton Town are yet to win a home game, having collected 1 point from their first two League One games here at PTS ACADEMY STADIUM.
Stress levels are on the rise for Northampton's attacking players as they have now played 205 minutes without scoring in a league game. S. Hoskins was their last goal scorer.
Northampton's last game was hosting Southampton U21 and winning 5-0. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Bristol Rovers (0-2).
As indicated by the result mentioned above, Northampton played a great game against Southampton U21 and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one.
At PTS ACADEMY STADIUM, Northampton Town has the goal stats of 2-4 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.
Peterborough United form and stats
It's not happening yet for Peterborough United on their League One travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Peterborough United have lost on their last two travels.
Peterborough go into this game after a win, the home game against Fulham U21 that ended 4-2. That result followed a home victory 3-1 versus Swindon Town in the League One.
As you can tell from the result, the match against Fulham U21 was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?
It's early days yet, but Peterborough United has scored 0 and conceded 3 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
Head 2 Head
As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's one Northampton victory, two draws and seven Peterborough United wins. Over/under statistics; two of these games ended with three goals or more, eight matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
