History of the Peterborough United v Milton Keynes Dons FC fixture

Peterborough prepare to entertain Milton Keynes Dons FC at London Road Ground on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 2 of the 5 previous games, with the Posh winning just 1.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at London Road Ground was earlier this season, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-3 winners in a League Cup match.

Recent respective form guides

Peterborough United's home form is most definitely relegation standard, collecting just 1 solitary point from the last six. While Posh have scored 4, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.

Milton Keynes's away form is none too clever either, collecting 1 win and 3 draws from the last six played. Only 2 goals have been registered in this time, with 3 leaked at the wrong end.

Peterborough are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola League One with a return of just 39 points from their 44 games thus far. Milton Keynes are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola League One with a return of just 45 points from their 44 games thus far.
