Peterborough Utd. - Derby County

Peterborough lie at the bottom of the second tier with just three wins in past 24 rounds. They’re surely serious contenders for relegation, but something that gives a faith in better days is their results at home in past few weeks. They have just one defeat (Barnsley 1-2) in last six games (with two wins and three draws). Posh avoided defeats against very strong sides Boro (2-2), Swansea (2-2) and Cardiff (heroic comeback from 0-4 to 4-4). Have noticed victories against fellow strugglers Scunthorpe (3-0) and Watford (2-1). This game for hosts is to be or not to be and will probably dedicate their fate for this season. Three on-loan signings, forwards Reid and Mcleod and midfielder Livermore are available to play. Posh have scored in every home game this season.

 

Derby slowly become a serious contender for moving in the third tier. They’ve noticed three defeats in last four games (fourth game was vs. Newcastle on the road where the Rams somehow kept the goalless draw) and scored just two goals in their last six games. Real disaster came against another contender Scunthorpe, when they were trashed at home 1-4 and were booed off by the own supporters. After that, they passed League One side Millwall after penalties (0-0). Their performance looks without a clue, harmless in attack with insecure defense line. Also, dressing room atmosphere is not so good as papers are full of rumors that boss Nigel Clough has lost players’ support. Derby could be without defender Miles Addison for the game as he has a foot problem.

 

Posh are fighting at home and I don’t expect their less effort than usual. Visitors don’t look competitive currently and this is ideal opportunity for hosts to run from relegation zone. Also, home players didn’t have competitive fixture during the week as Derby did and on hard pitch at London Road that in combination with today’s rain became even worse could be also a big advantage to home side. 2.30 at Pinnacle, home win.
