History of the Peterborough United v Milton Keynes Dons fixture

Peterborough prepare to entertain Milton Keynes Dons at London Road Ground on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 4 of the 9 previous games, with the Posh winning just 2.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at London Road Ground was just last season, in January 2009, when they played out a goalless draw in a League One match.
