Prediction

  • Stoke were outshot 26-7 by an injury-hit Middlesbrough side on Saturday as goals from Ben Doak and Hayden Hackney condemned the Potters to a 2-0 away defeat. Narcis Pelach has endured a difficult start to life in the dugout, losing both of his first two games in charge of Wednesday night's hosts.
  • Portsmouth produced one of their most impressive performances of the season at the weekend as they held an unbeaten Sheffield United side to a goalless draw at Fratton Park. Pompey are, however, one of just two sides still waiting for their first league win of the season heading into gameweek eight.
