Oxford United to Win

Reason for tip

Oxford have beaten Peterborough twice in the last month and they have won three of their last four games on the road. Peterborough have lost two of their last three matches so back them to fall at this stage of the playoffs with another defeat on Wednesday.

Oxford United 1-0

Reason for tip

Oxford have kept a clean sheet in three of the last four meetings between these two and they can build on their first-leg lead by holding form defensively before grabbing a goal on the break to put the tie to bed. With Posh losing to nil in two of their last three games, the visitors can edge another low-scoring encounter.

Peterborough vs Oxford United Predictions

  • Oxford have won six of their last nine games, including three wins form four on the road
  • Peterborough have lost their last two clashes with Oxford to nil
  • The hosts are winless in three, while they’ve lost twice across their last five at home

Oxford to build on first-leg lead

Oxford won 1-0 when these two met at the Kassam Stadium on Saturday night and they can build on that lead against a Peterborough side who are winless in their last three games.

The hosts have lost two of their last three, shipping six goals and failing to score on two occasions. It’s worth remembering that Posh fell apart at this stage last season despite a first-leg lead over Sheffield Wednesday and you have to question their mentality when it comes to launching a comeback in this second leg.

Posh have suffered defeats to Portsmouth and Carlisle across their last five at home and they meet an Oxford side who finished the campaign with a flourish. A tactical change helped them win six of their last nine, including three wins from their last four on the road.

Oxford hammered Posh 5-0 in April before Saturday’s first-leg victory and they are set up to deliver another defeat to the hosts. Back Oxford to remain compact and hold Peterborough at bay, before sealing a spot at Wembley with another narrow victory.
