Peterborough prepare to entertain Walsall at London Road Ground on Monday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 10 of the 22 previous games, with the Posh winning just 8.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at London Road Ground was two seasons ago, in January 2009, the Posh carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a League One match.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its a close one to call, but I think that Posh's reasonable showing at home is going to see them scrape past Walsall. Home Win
