Stockport welcome a wounded Peterborough United to Edgeley Park on Saturday, and the numbers point firmly one way in what looks a clear home job. Our Stockport vs Peterborough United prediction and best bets are below.
Stockport County sit ninth in League One and arrive off the back of a battling goalless draw at leaders Sheffield Wednesday, a clean sheet away from home that underlines their organisation at both ends.
Peterborough are in real bother down in 23rd with just five points from seven games. They parted company with Luke Williams before the break and travel under interim leadership after a 2-0 home loss to Doncaster.
The previous meetings record between these two is level, with two home wins, two draws and two away wins from the six recorded meetings, so there is history to suggest the Posh can cause problems here.
Stockport vs Peterborough United Form
Stockport head into Saturday ninth in the table and fresh from a stubborn 0-0 draw at Sheffield Wednesday. Jim McNulty's side have won just one of their last four League One matches, but the model puts them at a 66.76% win probability here, and Kyle Wootton and Jack Diamond look sharp up top, with both recording a shot on target in six of their last seven League One outings.
Peterborough are the story nobody wants to be, down in 23rd on five points from seven games and beaten 2-0 at home by Doncaster last time out in the league. There was a lift midweek, a 3-1 EFL Trophy win over Colchester with a Harry Ashfield brace and an Owura Edwards strike, but the wider league run reads poorly with just one win from seven.

Best Bets

Starting centre-back Kyron Gordon, who carries a 65.81% AI implied probability to register a shot on target, is well placed to test the keeper at least once from those deliveries.
Stockport vs Peterborough United Bet Builder
Our four-leg bet builder leans into Stockport's home strength: Jack Diamond to score anytime, Over 2.5 Total Home Goals, Stockport or Draw on the Double Chance, and Over 5.5 Total Home Corners.
Diamond is in form, scoring in 2 of his last 3 League One outings and recording a shot on target in 6 of his last 7, so he is a natural first leg against a leaky Posh back line.
Over 2.5 Total Home Goals fits the picture too, with Stockport projected to win comfortably and Peterborough weak at both finishing and stopping chances.
The Stockport or Draw Double Chance is the safety net, covering the hosts to avoid defeat given their solid recent showings at Edgeley Park, and this selection has hit in 5 of their last 5.
Over 5.5 Total Home Corners rounds it off, with Stockport having racked up 6+ corners in each of their last three meetings with Peterborough in League One.
At the time of writing, this bet builder pays a best price of 4.06/1 and is as short as 10/3 elsewhere.

Stockport vs Peterborough United Talking Points
Everything about this fixture points to Stockport. Peterborough sacked Luke Williams before the break and turn up under interim charge, and while they responded with a 3-1 EFL Trophy win over Colchester, the league picture is grim with just one win from seven. Stockport are settled, organised and sit ninth, fresh from shutting out the division's leaders. With the visitors missing several bodies, including two on international duty, the hosts have every reason to press home their edge in front of their own crowd.
