Peterborough United will host Stockport County in a crucial EFL League One fixture at Weston Homes Stadium on April 18, 2025. This match holds significant implications for both teams, with Peterborough aiming to climb the table and Stockport County seeking to solidify their promotion aspirations.​

Peterborough United currently sits 16th in the league standings with 48 points from 41 matches. Their recent form has been inconsistent, recording two wins and three losses in their last five games. Defensively, they have struggled, conceding an average of 1.76 goals per match in League One this season. Their home form has also been a concern, with a recent 0-4 defeat to Northampton Town highlighting their vulnerabilities.​

In contrast, Stockport County has been in impressive form, currently occupying 4th place with 77 points from 42 matches. They have won four of their last five games, showcasing their attacking prowess by scoring at least two goals in each of those victories. Their away record is commendable, with recent wins against Exeter City and Bolton Wanderers.​

Historically, Peterborough has had the upper hand in this fixture, winning three of the last five meetings. However, Stockport County secured a 2-1 victory in their most recent encounter on December 20, 2024, indicating a shift in momentum.​

Given Stockport County’s superior form and Peterborough’s defensive struggles, the prediction leans towards an away win for Stockport County.​
