Prediction: 3-1
Carlisle
High-flying Portsmouth will look to extend their winning run in League One to six games when they take on Carlisle United on Matchday 14. The Pompey look unstoppable at the moment and they must be high on confidence ahead of Saturday’s football game. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Colby Bishop, who was rested in the EFL Trophy triumph (5-1) of Gillingham. The opposition back-line should have the 26-year-old forward at bay as he scored a brace in a 2-0 triumph over Port Vale.
The Cumbrians, on the other hand, aim to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to Leyton Orient, but given Portsmouth’s four-game winning run at home ground, we do not believe that the visitors are capable of grabbing something from the match. There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team, but talented forward Luke Plange could sneak into the starting XI.
Highlighted Team (Portsmouth):
During Milan Mandaric’s era at the club, Portsmouth played an important role in the Premier League, with the team finishing their debut season (2003/2004) in the 13th position in the standings. The club impressed in the 2008/2009 season, with Nwankwo Kanu’s goal helping them beat Cardiff City in the FA Cup final.
As a result, Portsmouth represented England in the Europa League, with the team progressing in the group stages of the competition thanks to a win over Vitoria Gimaraes in the final qualifying round. The current club was formed in 2013, but the original amateur club was founded back in 1883. Nowadays Portsmouth host their rivals at Fratton Park, with the venue holding up to 20,620 spectators.
The likes of Sol Campbell, David James, Glen Johnson and aforementioned Nigeria international Nwankwo Kanu are considered one of the club’s most notable players. Portsmouth wear blue shirts, white shorts and red socks when hosting their rivals at Fratton Park, while wearing white and blue colours when playing on the road.
