| Key Player | Peter Gain.Influential midfielder who will hope to recapture the sort of form that saw him rise to prominence under Keith Alexander at Lincoln. A creative midfielder with a sweet left foot, given time and space, the ex Tottenham man can be one of the best midfielders in the division.
|
|---|
| Strengths | As you might expect from a Keith Alexander side, Peterborough will be a physically strong team this season. They have big, strong, powerful attackers like Trevor Benjamin, Justin Richards and Danny Crow who will cause a few headaches for defenders.
|
|---|
| Weaknesses | Service to the strikers. As Town discovered in the Play Offs with Lincoln last season, Alexander's sides may often have some handy forward players but unless they are supported by a creative midfield, there is only so much they can do.
|
|---|
| Prediction | 9th. Alexander has often made the top 7 in this division and he will go close with Peterborough, but just not close enough.

Next Team: Rochdale
