The first League match of the season and what could be described as a local rival seeing as both clubs are less than 50 miles apart.
Posh edged the first half in possession terms as they tried to frustrate the home side also the Foxes did create a couple of good chances towards the end of the first half. The second half was a complete let down as Posh turned in a poor performance until Grant McCann and Emile Sinclair were brought on. By the time McCann came on, it was too little too late but having said that, Sinclair could`ve bagged up to 4 goals had he been more clinical with his finishing!
