Oxford United vs Peterborough Prediction & Betting Tips - League One
by Ian John | in Football Predictions
The second League One Playoff semi-final first leg takes place on Saturday as Oxford United host Peterborough United. The home side have good memories of this fixture, having beaten Peterborough United 5-0 at the Kassam Stadium just a few weeks ago. Des Buckingham has led his team to a fifth-place finish in League One, seven points behind the team they face today. Since beating Peterborough, Oxford won just one of their final three league games, defeating Exeter 2-1 at St James’ Park on the final day of the season. The U’s have won six of their final ten games of the season, drawing two and losing two.
Darren Ferguson will be hoping for a much better result than the last game here a few weeks back. Certainly one that will give Peterborough a chance to head into the League One playoff final after the second leg at the Weston Homes Stadium next week. Posh have won just two of their last five games, finishing the season with an away 2-0 defeat at Cheltenham and then an entertaining 3-3 draw at home with another playoff team, Bolton Wanderers. The winners of this two-legged semi-final will earn a trip to Wembley to face either Bolton or Barnsley for a place in the Championship next season.
