History of the Stockport County v Peterborough United fixture

Peterborough face a trip to Stockport County at Edgeley Park on Saturday afternoon, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Of the 24 games played, Posh have recorded 5 wins, and Stockport Co. have come away with 8 victories.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in January 2004, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2 - 2 draw in a League Division Two match.

Recent respective form guides

Stockport County's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Hatters have scored 8, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Peterborough's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Posh have hit 6 goals, 9 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Stockport Co. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 12 games have yielded only 6 points. Peterborough are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 12 points from 11 matches.
