Burton or Draw

Burton still need points to make sure they will stay out of trouble. That’s why our first Burton vs Peterborough prediction is for the Brewers to earn something from this match. They have been able to do so in all of their last 4 home games (W3 D1). At the same time, Peterborough’s playoff chances faded away after 2 defeats in the last 3 rounds.

Taylor to Score Anytime

Our next Burton vs Peterborough prediction is a bit brave but we really like how Dale Taylor has impacted Burton’s attack since his arrival in late January and we back him to score. The striker is fresh from scoring the winner on Saturday, his second goal since joining the team. Taylor is the focal point of Burton’s attack right now and in the last 5 rounds, he had attempted 57% of the entire team’s shot count. Now he faces a Peterborough defence that shipped 3 goals at home on Saturday and kept only 2 clean sheets in the last 8 rounds.

Over 2.5 Goals

We expect this to be a high-scoring affair and our last betting prediction is for the game to have at least 3 total goals. This had been the case in all of the last 5 H2H clashes. Also, Peterborough went over 2.5 goals in 4 of their last 6 matches.

Burton vs Peterborough Lineups and Other News

Burton

Burton showed great character on Saturday and despite being reduced to ten men in the first half of their home match vs Wycombe they still won 2-1. The Brewers now have a 6-point lead over the relegation zone after being able to win 5 of their last 8 league games (D1 L2).

Important anchor-man Oshilaja now misses suspended. However, in Shaughnessy very good alternative is available. The options in midfield are restricted though with both McCann and Terry Taylor remaining sidelined. At least the added to the squad in the winter playmaker Helm is fit and ready to start again in the number 10 role.

Peterborough

Posh offered an awful showing on Saturday when losing 0-3 at home against the relegation-threatened team of Cheltenham. Peterborough were horrible both in defence and in the attack. This was the third very poor display in just the last 4 rounds and the chances to catch the top 6 look more like a pipe dream right now.

Kyprianou got hurt at the weekend and he could miss now. However, this is the only serious issue and really Posh can’t hide behind excuses. Centre-back Knight returns after a ban and he could start in an attempt to improve the stability at the back.
