How Portsmouth’s Preston show of force made EFL mark as Sheffield United, Leeds United, Sunderland & Co travel in numbers

Pompey fans once again showed their class as they travelled in numbers to Preston

It was the biggest away following of the season at Deepdale, as a season’s high 3,624 made the trek to Lancashire for the 2-1 loss.

That shaped up very impressively across the EFL, with the likes of Leeds, Norwich, Burnley and Sunderland also on the road last weekend.

You can see just how well that backing ranked in our gallery highlighting weekend away followings.
