Peterborough set to hold Wycombe

Peterborough vs Wycombe - 21/01/2020

Peterborough set to hold Wycombe
2948

On Tuesday night, Peterborough host high-flying Wycombe Wanderers at the Weston Homes Stadium, as the visitors look to consolidate their position in the League One automatic promotion spots.

The home side could still mount a push for the League One play-off spots. The Posh are currently four points outside the play-off spots and ten points behind the visitors, who occupy second place in the table.

A 1-0 defeat at AFC Wimbledon last time out means that Darren Ferguson’s team are now winless in six League One games, having suffered four defeats in the process. The home sides biggest problem of late is finding the net, as they have failed to score in five of their last six matches in the third tier.

Peterborough have been hard to beat on home soil, as they have lost just once in their last 11 home games in League One. However, Ferguson’s team have failed to win in their last two league games on home soil, having scored just two goals in their last four home league matches.

The lack of goals has contributed to three of their last four matches in the third tier on home soil producing under 2.5 goals.

Wycombe are currently in second spot in the table, occupying the second automatic promotion berth in League One. However, Wanderers are just two points clear of third-place Ipswich Town.

A 2-1 home win over Rochdale last time out in League One was much-needed, as the visitors had failed to win in five league games, having suffered four defeats.

Gareth Ainsworth’s team have struggled for victories on their travels, failing to win in four outings, while suffering three straight league defeats away from home.  Wycombe have also failed to score in their last four league matches on the road.

With neither team in great form, it is little surprise that Forebet predicts that this match will end in a low-scoring draw.
