The "Posh" are vying for a direct promotion to the Championship and currently hold the fourth position in the League One table. Under the stewardship of Darren Ferguson, the team has accumulated 69 points from 36 matches. This places them four points behind the second-placed Derby. It's worth noting that Peterborough has been delivering commendable results in recent rounds, and if the trend continues, we may soon see Darren Ferguson's proteges climbing to the second spot. Last weekend, the "Posh" defeated Burton away with a score of 3-1. This victory marks Peterborough's fourth consecutive win in the league and fifth across all competitions.
Stevenage

They trail Peterborough by seven points, while Derby holds an 11-point advantage over them. In the previous matchday, Stevenage failed to overcome Fleetwood at home, settling for a goalless draw. This draw marks the second consecutive one for the "Boro" with such a result, whereas prior to this, Steve Evans' charges secured victories against Wycombe and Cambridge United.
