Analysis Peterborough

The home team comes to this stage of the FA Cup (4th Round) after having eliminated: Aston Villa, Woking and Tranmere Rovers. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses in away matches; against 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses at their stadium. They come to this match after a away loss against Lincoln City by (4‑2). Peterborough United has won 6, tied 2 and lost 2 of the last 10 home matches.

In this competition, they haven’t lost any of the last 5 matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 4 of the last 5 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in all of the last 5 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 56 of the last 65 matches have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 4 times, but have turned the score around in 3.

Peterborough comes unmotivated for this match after a 4-2 defeat at Lincoln ground. The home team chooses to play a traditional 4-3-3 where the three forward players are Lloyd, Marriott and Morias. While acting at home, Peterborough must take a more defensive stance, given the quality of the opponent. The coach Grant McCann should have all the players available for this match.

Confirmed Lineup: Jonathan Bond, Liam Shephard, Andrew Hughes, Ryan Tafazolli, Steven Taylor, Anthony Grant, Leo da Silva Lopes, Christopher Forrester, Danny Lloyd, Jack Marriott, Marcus Maddison.

Analysis Leicester

The away team comes to this stage of the FA Cup (4th Round) after havinf played in the previous rounds against: Fleetwood Town.

Leicester comes motivated for this match after a 2-0 home triumph against Watford: Vardy and Mahrez signed the goals of victory.

It won’t be surprising that Leicester opt to play a 4-4-2 tactical design to channel their offensive process through the centre aisle. The coach Claude Puel won’t count on Danny Simpson for being injured.
