Recent form
Portsmouth
Portsmouth's recent form presents a mixed picture, with their last six matches yielding two wins, two draws, and two losses. Despite their lowly 24th position in the Championship, Pompey have shown signs of improvement in their most recent outings. They've managed to score an impressive 10 goals in their last six games, averaging 1.67 goals per match, while conceding 7. Their latest victory, a convincing 3-0 win over Bristol City, marks their first clean sheet in this run. Interestingly, 67% of Portsmouth's recent matches have seen both teams score, and the same percentage have produced over 2.5 goals, indicating a tendency for high-scoring affairs. While there are no extended winning or losing streaks to note, Portsmouth's ability to find the net consistently (scoring in five out of six games) offers a glimmer of hope for their supporters as they look to climb out of the relegation zone.
Norwich
Norwich City's recent form has been inconsistent, with their last six matches yielding two wins, one draw, and three losses. The Canaries have been involved in some high-scoring affairs, notably their 6-1 thrashing of Plymouth Argyle and a 4-2 victory over Luton Town, demonstrating their attacking prowess. However, they've also suffered heavy defeats, including a 3-0 loss to Queens Park Rangers in their most recent outing. Norwich's defensive frailties are evident, having conceded 12 goals in their last six matches and failing to keep a clean sheet in their last 10 games. Their matches tend to be goal-fests, with 67% of their recent games seeing over 2.5 goals. Despite their mixed form, Norwich find themselves in 9th position in the Championship, suggesting they're still in contention for a play-off spot if they can find some consistency.

Recent home/away form
Portsmouth
Portsmouth's home form has shown a notable improvement in recent matches, with the team securing back-to-back wins in their last two fixtures at Fratton Park. These victories have been particularly impressive, with Portsmouth scoring three goals in each game against Bristol City and Preston. Despite their overall league position, the Pompey have demonstrated resilience at home, managing to keep two clean sheets in their last six matches. However, their form has been inconsistent, with two losses and two draws preceding their recent winning streak. The 3-0 defeat to West Brom stands out as a particularly difficult result, while the goalless draw against Sheffield United showcases their ability to defend against tough opposition. With an average of 2.5 total goals per game and 67% of matches seeing over 2.5 goals, Portsmouth's home fixtures have tended to be entertaining affairs for the fans.
Norwich
Norwich City have been struggling with their away form recently, failing to secure a victory in their last six matches on the road. The Canaries have endured a particularly poor run of three consecutive away defeats, culminating in a heavy 3-0 loss to Queens Park Rangers. Whilst they've managed to score in four of these six games, their defensive frailties are evident, conceding an average of two goals per match and failing to keep a clean sheet. The team's tendency towards high-scoring affairs is noteworthy, with 67% of these away fixtures seeing over 2.5 goals. Despite their current 9th position in the league, Norwich's away performances have been a cause for concern, with their last away win now a distant memory.
