Match Preview: Peterborough United (A)

Peterborough Preview

Exeter City head back on the road to face Peterborough United in a 7:45pm kick-off at the Weston Homes Stadium.

City were narrowly beaten 1-0 at league leaders Birmingham City on Saturday, but will be looking to take the positives of their recent performances into facing the Posh on Tuesday night.

The Grecians take on a Peterborough side that have had a mixed season so far and sit in 19th place. They did pick up a strong point against in-form Leyton Orient on the weekend.

It's a long midweek trip from Devon, and as ever we thank every Grecian making the trip. Sing loud, sing proud and help the lads to three points.

Gary Caldwell's Thoughts

"They are still a very dangerous team. said Gary. "We saw that in the home game. They were fantastic with their counter-attacking play that day.

"We know the quality they have, they have an experienced manager who understands how to get teams out of this league. We know how tough a game it will be.

"Even though they are below us it is going to be an extremely difficult game where we have to be at our very best."
