Fleetwood Town

Marvin Johnson (17') was the scorer for Sheffield Wednesday.
Itโs been a rare occasion in recent games where Fleetwood Town have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes.

Such a pattern isnโt assured to be sustained into this match, though.

- haven't lost in the league to Portsmouth in their previous 2 games.
- haven't beaten Portsmouth in their last 6 league games.
- are without a home win in the past 3 league games.

Michael Devlin (Ankle Surgery) and Darnell Johnson (Achilles tendon rupture) wonโt be able to feature for Fleetwood Town boss Scott Brown.
๐๏ธ Team News: Portsmouth
Owing to an otherwise available group of players, thereโs just the one fitness problem for the Portsmouth gaffer Simon Bassey to contend with. Jayden Reid (Knee Injury) wonโt be playing here.
โก Prediction
Weโve got the feeling that Fleetwood Town will have their work cut out to score against this Portsmouth team who we think might win and very possibly keep a clean sheet.
Weโre therefore expecting a very competitive encounter with a 0-1 winning margin for Portsmouth when the referee blows for full-time.
Should be interesting.
