Where Portsmouth sit in League One table based on the last 10 games: record compared to Bolton, Peterborough, Derby & rivals - gallery

Portsmouth were unbeaten in their first 16 games, but their league form has taken a slight dip since then.

Portsmouth have enjoyed an excellent start to the season and they are currently the pace setters in League 1 with an impressive 53 points from 26 matches.

The South Coast giants stormed to the summit by going unbeaten in all of their opening 16 league games, but that imperious run ended on 25 November when they were thrashed 4-0 at home to promotion contenders Blackpool.
