Peterborough United vs Notts County Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

We are backing a comfortable passage to a third round tie against Chelsea for Peterborough when they host Notts County in the FA Cup replay. We think that the gap between these two sides is large enough that it is worth getting on a handicap bet to boost our return, we are tipping Peterborough (-1) at 7/5 with bet365. For our correct score tip we cannot see any way that the visitors will threaten so are backing a 3-0 home win at 12/1 with the same site.

It was expected that Peterborough would progress at the first time of asking a few weeks ago and after two early goals for the Posh it seemed that everything was going to plan. The script was ripped up when Adam Campbell pulled one back for County and when United were reduced to 10 it seemed a shock was back on the cards. It wasn’t until the 94th minute that Notts County drew level to set up Tuesday nights replay and they may consider it a missed opportunity having held the numerical advantage for the majority of the second half.

The form of the sides couldn’t be any further apart. League One side Peterborough currently occupy the last of the playoff places and even though they recently lost to leaders Scunthorpe a few weeks ago they look in excellent shape at the moment. Visiting London Road is a Notts County side who just can’t seem to buy a win at the moment. County have failed to win in their previous eight games and boss John Sheridan will likely see the FA Cup as a welcome distraction from a league campaign that seems to be in a never ending downward spiral.
