Portsmouth, buoyed by their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after the 1-3 League One victory versus Wycombe Wanderers.
For Portsmouth, goals were scored by Colby Bishop (3', 28') and Christian Saydee (67'). Matt Butcher (7') was the scorer for Wycombe Wanderers.
Their latest results really do illustrate the point that things are going according to plan in the Portsmouth rearguard. Portsmouth have been miserly, with the total number of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper during their last 6 clashes standing at 3.
A look at their previous results shows us that Portsmouth:
- have not lost a league tie with Derby County in their last 3 matches.
- haven't won against Derby County in their last 7 league games.
- are unbeaten in their last 5 league matches at home.
Derby County
WWWWLW
Derby County go into this encounter following a 1-0 League One win with the downing of Blackpool in their most recent outing.
The only player to score from Derby County was Ebou Adams (40').
A sequence of reliable showings by the Derby County defence has resulted in the number of goals they’ve conceded standing at 4 from their previous 6 outings overall. During the same period of time, their own forwards have managed to score 10. That trend isn’t assured to be carried forward here, though.
Heading into this fixture, Derby County remain undefeated by Portsmouth when they have played them away from home in the previous 3 league matches.
🤜🤛 Head to head
Looking over their prior head to head meetings dating back to 29/10/2011 tells us that Portsmouth have won 1 of them & Derby County 2, with the number of drawn results being 3.
In all, 14 goals were scored between the two sides in these games, with 6 of them for Pompey and 8 for The Rams. The average goals per game has been 2.33.
The last league match featuring these sides was League One match day 8 on 16/09/2023 which ended up with the score at Derby County 1-1 Portsmouth.
The match was refereed by Rebecca Welch.

🔮 Prediction
We’re of the view that Derby County will need to put in a solid display to score against this Portsmouth outfit who we reckon should get a goal themselves and run out victorious.
We’re therefore anticipating a narrow 1-0 winning margin for Portsmouth at the end of this game.
Let’s see how it plays out.
