Peterborough play host to Blackpool at London Road Ground on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Posh are clearly on top, having won 10 and lost only 2 of the 17 games.
The last time the two teams met at Peterborough was back in August 2004, over five years ago, when they played out a goalless draw in a League One match.

Recent respective form guides
Peterborough United's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While Posh have scored 5, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.
Blackpool's away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the Seasiders have hit 9 goals, 13 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Peterborough find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 44 games have yielded only 31 points. Blackpool lie just outside the playoff positions in the Coca-Cola Championship, picking up 66 from their 44 games so far.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the Posh at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Seasiders come away with an easy victory. Away win
