Betting Insights
With Peterborough United slightly favoured at 2.32 to get the win and Northampton Town set at 2.9 , the odds on offer for the visitors may be a little low.
Prediction
- Northampton have been mixed at Sixfields and Posh haven’t won on their last trip there, so it’s likely to be close.
- But Posh have a greater attacking prowess than the Cobblers, who have been struggling lately, so there could be a few goals in this one with the Over 2.5 goals option at 1.85 appealing.
