Peterborough United - Stevenage predictions and free betting tips [13/03/2024]

English football is a spectacle that you just can't afford to miss. It never fails to deliver an adrenaline rush and enduring memories to its spectators, often piquing the interest of even those who profess no interest in football. On the 13th of March in League 1, England's third-tier division, a game is scheduled to take place at Weston Homes Stadium.

Peterborough United

Last season, Peterborough United posted strong results. They finished the championship in the 6th place, securing a berth in the playoffs for a chance to advance to the Championship. In the semi-finals, they squared off against Sheffield Wednesday, securing a 4:0 victory in the first leg but were stunned in the return leg which Sheffield Wednesday prevailed in, posting a 6:1 scoreline after extra time.

This season, Peterborough United's campaign to advance to the Championship continues, with the team currently occupying the 4th spot. They suffered a setback in the round 32 facing a defeat to Blackpool (1:2). However, they managed to bounce back and picked up a win against Cambridge United (1:0), followed by another victory against Exeter City (2:1). The lads then steamrolled Northampton Town with an emphatic 5:1 win at their home ground. In their most recent match, they saw off Burton Albion with a 3:1 scoreline.

Stevenage

After a decade, the team finally managed to secure a promotion to League 2. The lads finished 2nd, bagging 85 points. In the current season, Stevenage continue to impress their fan base in the 3rd division. After 35 fixtures, they're stationed at the 6th place with 58 points.

In the round 32, they suffered a narrow defeat to Derby. In the following match, Stevenage picked up a slender win against Wycombe. Subsequently, they triumphed over Cambridge United (1:0). After this, they were held to a stalemate by Lincoln in a goalless draw. In their latest fixture, they played out a 0:0 draw against Fleetwood.

Head-to-Head

The last time Peterborough United and Stevenage went up against each other was on the 28th of November 2023. That match ended in a stalemate (2:2).

Prediction

Peterborough United have been in top form, registering 4 consecutive victories. Conversely, Stevenage have loosened their grip a bit, and they're finding it increasingly difficult to rake in points. On their home ground, I believe the Boro will clinch a comfortable win, so I'm betting on the hosts to prevail.

Total Prediction

Given the teams' form and attacking prowess, I expect an exciting encounter filled with goals. So, I recommend betting on over 2.5 goals for the match.
