Football League sponsors Sky Bet have installed Peterborough United as favourites to beat their visitors Oldham Athletic in the League One clash today.
Peterborough United v Oldham Athletic
Location: ABAX Stadium
Date: Saturday, 20th January, 2018
Kick-off: 15:00pm
Posh have been installed as favourites to beat the struggling Latics but we`ve seen that plenty of times when Posh have faced sides near the bottom only to come a cropper and lose!
That was the case last time these sides met earlier in the season when the Latics were bottom of League One but still came out 3-2 winners despite being redeuced to 10-men early in the second half when they were leading one-nil!
Posh are on a good run of results though having lost just one of their last nine matches in all competitions while the Latics have lost eight of their 17 away matches in all competitions.
Can Posh finally start beating the sides near the bottom of League One? Predict the Posh v Latics score HERE.
Last season at the ABAX Stadium the two sides battled out a one-all draw. Lee Erwin had given the Latics an eleventh minute lead before Junior Morias earned a point for Posh seventeen minutes from time. Posh picked up all three yellow cards in a match refereed by Lee Swabey.
With Posh on a decent run and the LAtics still struggling at the lower end of League One have Sky Bet got their odds correct? Posh have been quoted odds of 21/20 to win this match with the Latics at 12/5. The draw has odds of 13/5.
