CoventryU21s

Peterborough United Under 21s return to base for the final block of fixtures on Wednesday afternoon (1.30pm) starting with the visit of Coventry City.   

The jam-packed April continues for our development side, who gear up to face Coventry City in midweek.  

Ryan Semple will be hoping for more of the same as last time around, as his side held on to secure a 2-1 victory over Watford at Vicarage Road, owing to strikes from Fabian Claxton and a Trialist.  

City’s run of six games unbeaten came to an end in midweek, having been handed a heavy defeat by Ipswich Town. 

Donay O’Brien-Brady and Patryk Sykut were on target in the reverse fixture, as our youngsters claimed a 2-0 victory over Wednesday’s opponents.  

TEAM NEWS    

A similar side is likely to take to the field from the one that ran out 2-1 winners at Vicarage Road last time out.  

FROM THE MANAGEMENT

Head of Recruitment, Analysis and PDP Coach Sam Gaughran said: "It will be another tough test tomorrow against Coventry City. We’re looking at a similar squad to last week so it’s another good opportunity for the younger lads to experience some Under 21s football, and hopefully we can come away with another result.” 

THE OPPOSITION    

Coventry sit fifth in the northern section, having picked up 36 points from 24 league matches. Mark Delaney’s young Sky Blues have seen 11 victories, three draws and ten defeats over the course of the term, putting them in the upper reaches of the table.
