Peterborough Posh
Peterborough United are 17th in League One 2026/2027 with 3 points from 3 matches. Their form is inconsistent, with 3 wins and 2 losses from their last 5 games in all competitions.
Peterborough won 5-1 away at Watford in the EFL Cup 2026/2027 and lost 4-0 away to Blackpool in their last League One 2026/2027 match. The Posh have won 2 of their last 3 home games against Stevenage so have a slight edge heading into this game at Weston Homes Stadium.
Peterborough have been more clinical at the start of the season with Ben Woods the top scorer in League One 2026/2027 with 1 goal from 2 matches so far. Luke Williams has Peterborough playing a 4-2-3-1 which is based on retaining possession and looking for the quick vertical pass through the middle of the field.
Stevenage Borough
Stevenage Borough are 18th in League One 2026/2027 with 2 points from 3 games so this already looks to be a scrap for breathing room. The Boro have also been inconsistent with 1 win, 2 draws and 2 losses from their last 5 matches in all competitions.
Stevenage Borough have had two contrasting results in their two most recent matches, losing 3-0 at home to Reading in the EFL Cup 2026/2027 and drawing 2-2 at home with Doncaster in League One 2026/2027. Jordan Roberts is Stevenage's top scorer in the league with 1 goal from 2 appearances, so he remains their sharpest edge in the final third.
Alex Revell has set his Stevenage side up to be compact and tough to break down in a 4-2-3-1 formation. The Boro are looking to defend in numbers and be dangerous on the counter attack.
Analysis
Odds & prediction
The odds for this game are 2.58 for both sides and 3.4 for the draw. This is a tough game to call and we think the draw is a little bit short considering the respective form of the two sides.
Tactical and betting
- The last 5 head-to-head matches between these sides were split 2-2-1 so neither side can claim an overall advantage. We are leaning towards Peterborough here as they have a home advantage and are looking more clinical so should be able to nick this one.
- Stevenage have looked stubborn but have struggled to finish teams off and this could be a close game with Peterborough's possession game against Stevenage's compact style.
- Under 2.5 goals at 1.83 and Both Teams To Score No at 1.95 both suit this script of a cagey game so we will take that selection in addition to our small stake wager on Peterborough.
