Peterborough United: attacking football
Trailing Bromley at half-time, Peterborough United salvaged a 1-1 draw away from home in their last League One match. The visitors had 18 shots to seven and 14 corners to one, but managed only two shots on target.
Peterborough United come into the match with a riskier balance between attack and defence: they have won four of their last ten matches, drawn three and lost three in that period. Their scoring rate is high - they average 1.8 goals per game over their last ten matches (and three goals per game across the season as a whole) - but their defence has been unreliable, conceding at a rate of 1.7 per game over the last ten. That makes Peterborough's matches open to goals even against stronger opponents.
