Prediction Mansfield Town vs Peterborough United 2025/2026 – Betting Tips for League One on 15/11/2025

Match preview

This League One clash at the One Call Stadium on 15 November pitches an in-form Mansfield Town against a Peterborough United side whose position in the table belies a recent purple patch. Mansfield arrive sitting eighth with a clear home edge: 13 goals scored and just six conceded at One Call Stadium across the campaign so far, and that defensive solidity at home has helped them rack up 22 points from 15 matches. Their recent sequence has been mixed but encouraging — two wins in the last four at home and a decisive 4-2 victory over Peterborough back in April provides a psychological edge heading into this fixture.

Form, numbers and momentum

Peterborough’s league standing — 22nd after 14 games — screams caution, yet their latest results show a team hitting a vein of form: a 5-0 demolition of AFC Wimbledon and a narrow cup win at Crawley underline an attacking intent that can cause problems. Still, the stats sketch a team that leaks goals on the road (12 conceded away) and whose away goal return is modest. Mansfield combine more attacking thrust with a sturdier home defensive record; their higher attacks average and dangerous attacks metrics point to sustained pressure in the final third when hosting opponents. Bookmakers back that picture: the market prices Mansfield at roughly 1.85 to win, with the away side at 4.10 and the draw at 3.55, suggesting the market expects the hosts to take three points.

Tactically, this promises to be a contest between Mansfield’s control and Peterborough’s countering firepower. Both teams have produced matches with goals in recent weeks — Peterborough’s recent fixtures and Mansfield’s 4-2 H2H last season show that chances are likely — but the underlying defensive numbers favour the hosts on their own turf. Clean sheet counts are identical, yet Mansfield’s better home goal differential gives them the edge in a one-off meeting at One Call Stadium.

Betting suggestion: Mansfield Town to win (1X2). The home side’s stronger home form, superior goal difference at One Call Stadium, the recent head-to-head win and the bookmaker support at 1.85 make a home victory the clearest single-market play. Consider a measured stake reflecting value rather than conviction — the price is fair but not generous, so a conservative approach to bankroll sizing is advised.
