Historically, the rivalry between Stevenage and Peterborough has been closely contested.

Stevenage team overview
Stevenage’s League One campaign has been marked by relative consistency. They have recorded 10 wins, 9 draws, and 7 losses, a record that reflects a decent return of points and places them in eighth position ahead of this Round 29 fixture. However, their recent run of games has not delivered the kind of results they would have hoped for over the past couple of months. Alex Revell’s men have failed to win in eight consecutive League One matches, drawing back-to-back fixtures against Bolton and Mansfield in the last few rounds.
Injury concerns have not been extensively reported in public sources, but maintaining selection continuity may be key for manager Revell to arrest the recent lull in forward momentum.

Peterborough team overview
Peterborough arrive with a slightly less consistent campaign. They are placed ninth in the table, just one place and one point behind Stevenage, with a League One record of 11 wins, 2 draws, and 13 losses, reflecting more unpredictability in results. Recent form has seen Peterborough register a series of mixed results: comfortable wins such as 2-0 at Wycombe are contrasted with narrow losses at home, suggesting inconsistency but also capability to penetrate oppositions.
Manager Luke Williams has overseen this fluctuation in results since taking charge, and squad rotation or tactical adjustments - particularly in attack - could be decisive here. There is limited public reporting of specific long-term injuries, suggesting both sides might approach this fixture with near-full squads.

Prediction
Statistically, this fixture promises a tight contest between two mid-table sides separated by the narrowest of margins. Stevenage’s stronger defensive balance has helped them secure clean sheets more often than their opponents, while Peterborough’s greater goalscoring output suggests they may be the more adventurous side. Additionally, Peterborough have enjoyed a better spell of performances in recent weeks, recording three wins in their last five League One outings; therefore, we predict them to avoid defeat on Tuesday.
Prediction: Peterborough not to lose (double chance X2).
Three reasons we expect Double chance X2
- Peterborough have recorded three wins in the last five League One fixtures.
- Stevenage have failed to win any of their last eight League One games.
- Peterborough have won four of their last five League One outings.
