We said: Salford City 0-2 Peterborough United
Peterborough may have been hit with defensive absentees which Exeter were able to take advantage of, but it is difficult to see Salford experiencing that much goalmouth joy amid their scoreless streak.
Wood's side deserve credit for coming away from Posh's turf with a draw to their name, but we expect McCann's side to immediately get back on track and advance to the second round.
