History of the Peterborough United v Chester City fixture

Peterborough prepare to entertain Chester City at London Road Ground on Monday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Posh are clearly on top, having won 14 and lost only 4 of the 22 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at London Road Ground was just last season, in December 2006, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-2 winners in a League Two match.
