Portsmouth recorded a vital win over title challengers Luton on Tuesday night and boss Paul Cook will be hoping his side can maintain the momentum at the weekend. His side have yet to fail to score at home in the league this season and boast the best defensive record in the division.

They have seen plenty of goals at the other end however and 62% of their home games has resulted in both teams scoring. One thing to watch out for is the timing of their goals as Pompey have an excellent record of striking when the half reaches its latter stages. They have 10 goals between the 31st-45th minute and 11 goals between the 76th-90th minute.

Stevenage have had an excellent couple of weeks especially while on their travels. They have a fairly modest away record but they have managed to win their previous three games on the road and they have managed to find the back of the net in each of their previous six league games.
