Portsmouth vs Peterborough: EFL Championship Live Stream, Form Guide, Head to Head, Schedule, Fixture and Probable Lineups

Portsmouth is set to host Peterborough United in an EFL Cup clash at Fratton Park. Portsmouth secured a 3-1 win against Forest Green Rovers in the previous round, advancing to the second round. On the other hand, Peterborough United managed to progress by defeating Swindon Town in a penalty shootout.

Since a loss to Sheffield Wednesday in March, Portsmouth has been on an impressive 18-game unbeaten streak across all competitions. While John Mousinho is content with his team’s consistent performance, he’s likely frustrated that their last two league matches ended without goals. Nonetheless, these goalless draws have led to four consecutive clean sheets in League One, showcasing their defensive strength. In their upcoming match against Peterborough, they aim to continue their solid defensive display. Portsmouth has exited the EFL Cup in the second round twice in the last three seasons, including a 3-2 defeat to Newport County last year. Progressing to the next stage would mark their first third-round appearance since the 2019-20 season.

Peterborough had a positive start to the season, securing three consecutive league victories and advancing to the EFL Cup’s second round by beating Swindon on penalties. However, their momentum was disrupted by a 1-0 loss to Northampton and a subsequent 4-2 defeat to Derby County, despite goals from Jonson Clarke-Harris and Kwame Poku. They aspire to return to winning ways in their first of two trips to Fratton Park, as they face Portsmouth again in a league fixture on Saturday. Peterborough competes in the EFL Cup’s second round for the second year in a row, with their eyes set on reaching the third round for the first time since the 2013-14 season.
