Cheltenham T. pack their bags to visit Peterborough United at London Road Ground on Saturday afternoon, looking to break their duck against the hosts. Most of the previous meetings have ended up in defeat for the Robins.
The previous match played between the two at London Road Ground was more than three years back, in December 2002, when they eased past their opponents in a high-scoring 4 - 1 thriller, in a League Division Two match.
