Peterborough United will look to avoid a fourth consecutive defeat in all competitions when they welcome Barnsley to the Weston Homes Stadium for Friday’s League One contest. The hosts currently sit in fourth place, while Barnsley are just one point adrift in sixth position, and they are currently in fine form after winning five of their last six competitive games.
Since thrashing Salford City 3-0 in the first round of the FA Cup, Peterborough have gone on to lose three consecutive games. After being edged out by Bristol Rovers in a League One meeting, Posh were knocked out of the EFL Trophy by Chelsea Under 21s following a 4-2 defeat.
In their FA Cup meeting with Shrewsbury Town last weekend, Kwame Poku restored parity in the 13th minute after Tom Bayliss had opened the scoring, but goals from Matthew Pennington and Luke Leahy before half time condemned Peterborough to a 3-1 defeat and a second-round exit.
