Open Styles Point to Decisive Result

Portsmouth have yet to record a clean sheet this season and concede two goals per game on average at home. Derby show similar defensive weakness away from home where they allow 2.3 goals per match while missing several defenders. The head to head record between these clubs features goals in half the last ten meetings. Portsmouth’s recent sequence of LWL includes matches where both teams found the net. Derby’s LDL form sees them create chances even on the road despite occasional blank spells. Both sides press forward without much protection at the back which reduces the chance of a low scoring draw.
