Peterborough vs Accrington Stanley Predictions

• Peterborough have collected more home points than any side in League One this season.
• The Posh are the highest scorers in the division on home soil.
• Over 2.5 goals have been scored in five of Accrington’s last six games.
• Accrington are without a clean-sheet in any of their last nine league fixtures.

Posh to bounce back on home soil

Peterborough will head into the weekend sitting second in the League One standings, but a run of one win in six has threatened to derail their promotion charge.

Despite their recent dip, Darren Ferguson’s side remain a force on home soil, as they have collected more points than any other League One side on their own patch this season – accumulating 41 from their 17 games to date.

The Posh have also scored 36 home goals, more than any other team in the league, while over 2.5 goals have been yielded from four of their last five matches at the Weston Homes Stadium.

Accrington’s playoff hopes have diminished following a run of just three wins from their previous 13 games, with a lack of clean-sheets proving their Achilles heel.

Indeed, Stanley have conceded in each of their last nine games, while over 2.5 goals have been netted in five of their previous six fixtures.

Peterborough claimed a 4-0 win when the two teams last met in Cambridgeshire and we are predicting a similar result on Saturday, as our prediction is for a Posh win and over 2.5 goals to be scored.
