Portsmouth travel to face Charlton Athletic this week with an impressive scoring streak on the road. The club has found the net in 11 successive away league games, their best run since April 2019.
That form will be tested against a Charlton side that has struggled for goals recently. The Addicks have failed to score in their last two league matches and last went three games without a goal in March 2023. Their expected goals tally of 3.8 is the lowest in the Championship this season, and only three sides have had fewer shots than their 61.
Portsmouth's recent history at The Valley is strong. They have lost only two of their last eight league visits there, winning four and drawing two. They won this exact fixture 3-1 last season and completed a league double over Charlton. Charlton have not lost three league games in a row to Portsmouth since December 1983.
John Mousinho's side currently sit 17th in the Championship table with six points from five games. Their recent form reads WLLWL, with their last result a 2-0 home win over Cardiff City on 5 September. Conor Shaughnessy and Marezi were the goalscorers in that victory.
The club's injury list includes Connor Ogilvie, Franco Umeh, Jacob Farrell, Josh Murphy, Keshi Anderson and Luke Brooke-Smith.
After the trip to Charlton, Portsmouth's next fixture is at home to Blackburn Rovers on 19 September. Blackburn are currently 18th in the table, one place below Portsmouth. The full schedule is available on our fixtures page.
