Such a frustrating season for us in many ways. If we'd only had average away form , we'd be pushing for the automatics. We've only lost once at home and rarely look like doing so.
Peterborough is a difficult one. We are the patron saints of giving teams on a bad run a pick me up and so you tend to expect more of the same. I'm glad , however, that Westley is struggling.
We ALWAYS struggle when we go to Peterborough, it's one of those places (like Swindon) where we seem to never turn up. I've never been, but is it a tight pitch? We always seem to struggle on tight pitches. We also tend to go to places where we have historically done poorly and appear frightened and beaten before a ball has been kicked.
I think Peterborough are safe from relegation and in the same vein they are unlikely to trouble the playoffs, so they've not really got a lot to play for, except for the fact that the manager will not want to get sacked by continuing this poor run. They've blatantly got some talented players but selling their leading scorer in January appears to have hit hard.
We'll probably just replace Kennedy with Byron Moore after an impressive cameo as a sub on Saturday. We never look like scoring loads but don't concede a lot either. Generally, if Peterborough score first we will lose, otherwise it is likely to be a low scoring affair.
I'm going to go for an optimistic 1-1.
