Peterborough 8/13 to beat Burton Albion in Tuesday’s League One contest

Competition: League One

Market: Peterborough win

Odds: 8/13 @ 888sport

Hoping to continue on what has been a stellar run of form, Peterborough will host a struggling Burton Albion on Tuesday night.

Starting with the hosts, enjoying what has been a stellar run of form heading into November, Peterborough have their sights set on securing a Championship return this season. In their eight League One matchups so far, they have recorded six wins against two defeats, scoring 12 and conceding six in return. Collecting a points tally of 18, the Blues open the midweek fixtures sat second in the standings and just a single point adrift of climbing to the top of the table. As for their recent run of results, including a very impressive 2-1 win away at fellow promotion chasers Hull City, Tuesday’s hosts have won each of their last six matchups across all formats on the bounce, scoring over 1.5 goals in all bar one of those victories. More impressive, the hosts have won each of their last five consecutive contests on home soil.

As for the visitors, enduring what has been a worrying start to the 2020/2021 campaign, Burton Albion already find themselves battling it out at the foot of the table. In their opening eight League One matchups so far, they have recorded just a single win, two draws and five defeats, scoring nine and conceding 16 in return. Opening Tuesday’s fixtures sat bottom of the table thanks to their goal difference, it should also be noted that Burton hold the worst defensive tally in the division. As for their recent run of results, the midweek guests have failed to win any of their last seven matchups across all formats, losing five of those appearances. Also failing to record a single away victory across any competition this season, we’re backing a home victory on Tuesday night.
