Portsmouth will play host to Derby County in the fourth round of matches in the Championship. Both teams haven’t had great starts to the season, Portsmouth being 15th and a winless Derby 21st. A total of 21 goals have been scored in their opening three rounds, signaling a high-scoring encounter, as our prediction will show.
Portsmouth will be eyeing a second win here. Their only one in the league was against Lincoln, a 3-1 victory sitting in the middle of two defeats, the latest a 2-1 setback at Bristol City.
Pompey, who fell 3-1 to West Ham United in the League Cup, have now conceded nine times in four games.
Derby are coming here in a worse situation; they suffered their heaviest defeat of the season in the last round, a 3-0 loss at home against Swansea.
While that was the first time the Rams failed to score this season, it marked a fourth straight match in which they conceded two or more goals. Their only point in the league thus far was registered after a 2-2 draw with Cardiff.
As they look to improve, Derby will most likely be let down by their away form, having lost seven times in the last 10 matches on the road.
