Free Betting Tips for Peterborough vs Plymouth

If you can’t seem to decide on a bet for Peterborough – Plymouth, check our top betting predictions for this duel here:

Peterborough or Plymouth

Amazingly there had been no draw registered in any of the last 14 H2H clashes between the sides – 8 wins for Peterborough to 6 for Plymouth. Also, Peterborough have the fewest draws in the entire League one – only 2 in 30 rounds. The Posh haven’t registered a draw in the last 8 rounds (W5 L3).

That’s why our first Peterborough vs Plymouth prediction is for the game to have a winner.

Clarke-Harris to Score Anytime

The League One top goalscorer Clarke-Harris (16 goals) has been Peterborough’s most consistent contributor all season. Considering Clarke-Harris’ home record we pick as our second Peterborough vs Plymouth prediction for the reliable striker to score again.

Clarke-Harris has scored in exactly half (50%) of Peterborough’s home matches so far. He has found the back of the net 3 times in just the last 5 rounds too, so clearly, his form remains solid.

BTTS – No

Despite both teams being effective forward machines when they get going our final Peterborough vs Plymouth prediction is that not both sides will be able to score. We base that on the fact that all of the last 6 H2H between the sides had seen a clean sheet. Also, 7 of Peterborough’s last 8 league games had no BTTS outcomes. And finally, 4 of Plymouth’s last 6 away league games ended without a BTTS.

Peterborough vs Plymouth Lineups and Other Team News

Peterborough

Peterborough beat Morecambe 3-0 away last weekend to stop a run of 2 consecutive defeats. The Posh had been lacking consistency all season and if they want to make the playoffs they need to start a long winning streak very soon.

With the midweek free and the squad practically at full strength coach Ferguson is spoiled for choice. Even the injured since last spring midfielder Norburn is fit and available again, so the manager can rely on all of his regulars for the first time this season.

Plymouth

Plymouth were held to a frustrating 0-0 home draw by Fleetwood last Saturday. Due to the dropped points, Argyle lost the top spot, but they remain very well-positioned to secure a direct promotion. A tough test was endured on Tuesday night but Plymouth triumphed. They beat Cheltenham on penalties to book their place in the EFL Trophy final at Wembley, which will be played later this spring.

Plymouth’s options for rotation are seriously limited with 4 regular starters missing out injured right now. The back line is seriously weakened as the main goalie Cooper and starting defenders Grant and Scarr are among the injured players. Randall is also ruled out. At least third key defender Mumba seems to have recovered from an injury and he is an option again.
