05/03/2024 10:45 pm
Peterborough United will attempt to secure a fourth successive victory across all competitions when they host Northampton Town at the Weston Homes Stadium for Tuesday’s League One match.
Meanwhile, the visitors will be looking to continue their promising run of form, having avoided defeat in each of their last four matches.
After losing four successive matches, Peterborough have got back on track with three straight victories, beginning with a 3-0 victory over Blackpool in the EFL Trophy semi-finals.
Posh went on to secure a 1-0 victory in the derby with Cambridge United, before they overcame Exeter City through a 2-1 scoreline in Saturday’s home game.
The fifth-placed side are now five points clear of Oxford United in seventh place, while they are seven points adrift of the automatic promotion spots.
Northampton will be confident that they can trouble Darren Ferguson’s side after taking eight points from their previous four matches.
In their most recent match, Louis Appere scored an 80th-minute equaliser to ensure that Saturday’s home encounter with Charlton Athletic finished in a 1-1 draw.
That result took Northampton’s tally to 49 points, leaving them in 12th position ahead of the midweek encounter with Peterborough.
