Peterborough United form and stats

Things could have gone better for Peterborough United in their League One away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right.

Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. Peterborough United goalkeeper Christy Pym is eager to challenge this, with his 264 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.

Impressive finishing from Joe Ward and Siriki Dembele secured the home win 2-0 against Oxford United in their previous game. Before that one, a nice away victory 2-0 at Northampton Town.

Peterborough United has another fixture away, a League One game, against Hull City in just four days. A tough schedule for the visitors!

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Peterborough as they have only managed to score 2 times from 3 away games in the league. 3 goals have been conceded by Peterborough in these games.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last four meetings between these two teams are: one win for Wigan, two draws and one win for Peterborough United. Over 2,5 goals: two times; under 2,5 goals: two games.
