Peterborough United Preview – Can Posh win back-to-back?
It’s been eight seasons since Peterborough United were last in the Championship but after several near misses and disappointing campaigns, manager, Darren Ferguson, finally got his Peterborough United side up into the second tier after joining Hull City in automatic promotion from League One at the end of last season.
Peterborough’s return to the Championship started on a losing note though as The Posh were handed a heavy 3-0 defeat away from home at Luton Town, but Ferguson’s men showed character and resilience to come from a goal down against Derby County to win 2-1 on Saturday.
Peterborough hold home advantage once again at London Road on Tuesday night but they face tricky customers in the shape of Cardiff City who have made themselves difficult to beat under manager, Mick McCarthy.
Cardiff City Preview – Can Bluebirds continue stubborn streak?
Cardiff City have picked up four points from their opening two matches of this new Championship season thanks to a 1-1 draw at home with Mick McCarthy’s former club, Barnsley, along with Saturday’s 2-0 win away from home at Blackpool.
Cardiff City hit the road again on Tuesday night when they travel to Peterborough but this is unlikely to faze The Bluebirds as they bring an unbeaten run of eight games into this midweek clash at London Road.
The visitors have also been tough to beat on the road as well, as the Welsh club have lost just one of their last 13 matches on their travels which includes seven wins and six clean sheets.
