Peterborough prepare to entertain Wrexham at London Road Ground on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Posh are clearly on top, having won 19 and lost only 7 of the 31 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at London Road Ground was earlier this season, when they eased past their opponents in a high-scoring 4-1 thriller, in a F.A. Cup match.
