Peterborough United
The "posh" celebrate their 90th anniversary this year, having not won anything significant in this considerable period.

Leeds United
The "Peacocks" are competing in the Championship this season, occupying a solid fourth place.

Statistics and match prediction
In this confrontation, the guests are considered favorites, although Peterborough is in good form, capable of putting up worthy resistance. The opponents have crossed paths before, but their last official battle took place in 2013, making those results irrelevant. Considering the similar attacking styles of both teams, there are good chances of witnessing entertaining and high-scoring football. We suggest placing a bet here on the total goals being over 2.5.
