Peterborough United form and stats

Peterborough United have only played one League One game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 12 wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats from 17 matches.

Peterborough lost their last game at Sunderland (placed 4th) after a 0-1 scoreline. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Fleetwood Town in a game that was won 2-1.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Peterborough's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played three games, won two matches, drawn zero and lost one.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Peterborough as they have a new game in only three days, a EFL Trophy match thankfully also at home. Fulham U21 are visiting.

Early season league goal statistics from Peterborough United's 1 home game: 2 goals, 1 conceded.

Swindon Town form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the League One ended in defeat. Last season Swindon Town had these away match statistics: Played 17; won 8, drew 4 and lost 5.

Swindon had fun at their own home (London Road Stadium) last time out, beating Burton Albion 4-2. Jordan Stevens, Jonny Smith, Mathieu Baudry and Brett Pitman scored. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Blackpool wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.

A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Swindon Town, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Swindon Town when being an outsider away as they are today, we find one match with the visitors losing zero times, drawing zero and winning one game.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Exeter City in just three days.

Swindon Town have the goal stats of 0-2 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Peterborough three wins, three draws and Swindon Town four victories. As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four games had two or less.
