Peterborough vs Bristol City prediction, preview, team news and more | EFL Championship 2021-22
Peterborough host Bristol City at the Weston Homes Stadium in the EFL Championship on Saturday, with both sides having contrasting seasons so far.
Peterborough have been woeful of late and are currently 22nd in the table. However, Darren Ferguson's side will be encouraged by their 0-0 draw against a high-flying Bournemouth side last time out. The Posh will hope to build on their performance against Bristol City on Saturday.
Despite their solid start to the season, Bristol City have faltered of late. Nigel Pearson's side have only managed to win one of their last five games. The Robins head into the game on the back of a 1-0 loss to Millwall last time out and will hope to bounce back with a win on Saturday.
