Peterborough United League One performance

Overview

Peterborough United secured a 3-1 away victory against Leicester City at King Power Stadium, featuring goals from Owura Edwards and Harry Leonard, plus an own goal by Warren O’Hora. This result increased pressure on Leicester manager Russell Martin following the home side’s third defeat in the competition.

Following this second consecutive win, Peterborough United prepared to host Burton Albion at Weston Homes Stadium. Despite the recent success, Peterborough has struggled with consistency throughout the 2026-27 season, sitting just above the relegation zone due to defensive difficulties. The team has lost five of its opening nine league matches and has conceded fourteen goals in that period, though it has shown strength in cup competitions, progressing in the EFL Cup and EFL Trophy.

Burton Albion entered the fixture following a narrow 1-0 defeat to Doncaster Rovers. Historically, Peterborough has held an advantage in recent meetings, winning four of their last eight encounters against the Brewers.
