Peterborough United

LWDLDL

Peterborough United will be hoping to bounce back here after the 3-1 League One defeat in their last game at the hands of Blackpool.

The only name on the scoresheet from Peterborough United was Brandon Khela (24'). Dale Taylor (3', 82') and Tom Bloxham (49') scored for Blackpool.

Peterborough United haven’t been able to stop scoring goals, finding the back of the net every time they’ve gone out to play in their last 6 games.

They have claimed a sum of 10 during that period while also conceding a total of 9. That trend won’t necessarily be carried forward here, though.

Their prior results show that Peterborough United:

• haven't lost in the league to Port Vale in their last 7 matches.
• are unbeaten in their previous 4 league matches at home.

Port Vale

WLLLWD

Last time out, Port Vale drew 0-0 in the League One tie with Barnsley.

It has become apparent that Port Vale have suffered from a lack of goals over their last six clashes, recording the unsatisfactory return of just 4. In those matches, The Valiants have also seen the overall goal tally against them equal 15.

Analysis of their past results shows that Port Vale:

• have not beaten Peterborough United when they've played them away from home in the last 3 league matches.
• have not won away from home in their last 3 league games.

👥 Head to head

Checking on past results between these clubs going back to 04/02/2017 reveals that these fixtures have not been good ones for Port Vale. They’ve not managed to get any victories whatsoever while Peterborough United have been superior, winning in 100 per cent of those ties.

In all, 13 goals were produced between them in these games, with 13 of them for The Posh and 0 netted by The Valiants. The average number of goals per game works out to 2.17.

The previous league clash featuring these sides was League One match day 21 on 20/12/2025 when the final score was Port Vale 0-1 Peterborough United.

The referee was Kirsty Dowle.

Matthew Garbett (Foot injury) and Sam Hughes (Achilles tendon rupture) are not available for Peterborough United boss Luke Williams.

⚡ Prediction

We believe that Peterborough United can and should see a lot of the ball and convert quite a few goal-scoring opportunities.

In contrast, Port Vale may well struggle to score themselves but we do fancy them converting at least once here, too.

We can therefore see a pretty comfortable 3-1 winning margin for Peterborough United when the full-time whistle blows.
