Peterborough Sports form and stats

It's the first season at a new level for Peterborough Sports as they were promoted from Non League Premier: Southern last season. Happy days that were secured through 24 wins, 7 draws and 9 losses from 40 games. The team scored 50 goals at home last season and conceded 17. It will be interesting to see how they perform at this level.

This is expected to be a close game, with Peterborough Sports perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Peterborough Sports as a small favourite), we find 6 games. Peterborough Sports has won 4 of these, drawn 1 and lost 1.

With the first game of the season soon underway, it's time to look at the results from the Peterborough Sports friendly games in pre-season: Peterborough Sports played three friendlies, won 2, drew 1 and lost 0. If you are really into statistics you might appreciate knowing that Peterborough Sports scored 4 goals and conceded 0 in these three games.

Buxton form and stats

A job perfectly done for Buxton last season as they secured promotion from Non League Premier: Northern. With a grand total of 23 wins, 12 draws and 7 defeats the season objective was secured. Of these wins, 9 were in away matches.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Buxton playing away and similar expectations, we found 8 relevant matches. Results were 2 Buxton wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats.

It's a day of discovery for Buxton as they finally learn what impact all the hours of pre-season training, along with the changes in personnel, have had on their performance in an official game. It's never easy knowing what to expect based on friendly games, of which Buxton have played two with the results W1-D1-L0 (win-draw-lost). In these games Buxton has scored 3 goals and conceded 2 times.
