Portsmouth have failed to live up to their billing in the Championship ahead of Sheffield United’s visit on Saturday. Pompey are in the relegation zone as they welcome the promotion-chasing Blades. We have the stats and a prediction of this match ready.
Six matches into the season, Portsmouth are stuck in the Championship relegation region. They are one of the two teams yet to register a win in the league while they’ve also been eliminated from the League Cup.
Not much is going to plan for John Mousinho after their barnstorming run to finish top of League One last season. This will be another tough match for Portsmouth, who have suffered three straight defeats ahead of meeting Sheffield.
The 2-1 loss to Burnley in the last game was a highlight of their struggles.
Sheffield United makes a fourth top five opponent for Portsmouth in the last four matches. The visitors will aim to add to Portsmouth’s misery as they are coming from a solid run. A two-point penalty hasn’t deterred Sheffield United.
They remain firmly in promotion shape and this is a game they’ll feel disappointed if they fail to win. At this point in the season, only two teams have won more matches than Sheffield United.
Coming from a third straight win, they will be fired up for this, also looking to keep their undefeated run going.
Gustavo Hamer’s goal against Derby County delivered Sheffield United’s fourth league win of the season. Astute defending saw them keep a third straight clean sheet. In their current shape, the visitors look unstoppable.
