History of the Peterborough United v Accrington Stanley fixture

Peterborough play host to Accrington Stanley at London Road Ground on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The Posh won the only previous game contested between the two.

The only previous meeting between Peterborough and Accrington S. at was way back in the black-and-white days of April 1961, with Peterborough running out comfortable 3-0 winners in a Fourth Division match.

Recent respective form guides

Peterborough United's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Posh have scored 10, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.

Accrington S.'s away form is none too clever either, collecting 1 win and 3 draws from the last six played. A generous 8 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.

Peterborough's total of 25 points from their 16 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Coca-Cola League Two. Accrington S. see themselves just below half way in the Coca-Cola League Two, showing a record of 20 points from their 16 games played so far,
