Portsmouth vs Sheffield Wednesday

Portsmouth remain winless in each of their last seven league games against Sheffield Wednesday (D3 L4), losing this fixture 1-2 last season.

Sheffield Wednesday are unbeaten in their last five away trips to Portsmouth in the league (W3 D2), winning the last two – the Owls have never won three in a row at Fratton Park.

No team has kept more clean sheets in the Championship this season than Portsmouth (3). Pompey are looking for three consecutive clean sheets at this level for the first time since keeping six in a row in February and March 2011.

Sheffield Wednesday have spent 64.4% of their Championship matches (inc. injury time) losing so far this season, the highest percentage of any club. The Owls are winless in all five games (D1 L4) although they haven’t been relegated in any of their last four league seasons when failing to win any of their opening five matches (2005-06, 2007-08, 2013-14 and 2023-24).

Although he hasn’t registered an assist yet, only one player has created more chances in the Championship this season than Sheffield Wednesday midfielder Barry Bannan (12).
