Why Saturday's Portsmouth v Port Vale game is available for all fans to stream live via iFollow

That’s because the Fratton Park fixture falls on a weekend that has deliberately been set aside by the EFL to allow for UK iFollow coverage.

Normally, weekend games in the Championship, League One and League Two can only be streamed and watched live by those supporters who are abroad at the time.

It’s a rule that does not apply to midweek games, with all fans – irrespective of location – granted access to the game for a £10 fee.

But because this Saturday’s fixture coincides with an international break, EFL broadcast rules allows for supporters in the UK to purchase match passes.

As always, a payment of £10 is required – a fee that is payable via the Pompey website.

Yet it means you can watch all the action unfold if getting to Fratton Park for the League One game is not possible.

The iFollow international break rule is not something Pompey fans are used to, with the Blues normally not playing due to player call-ups to their respective countries.

But with Joe Morrell (Wales) and Dane Scarlett (England under-20s) the only two players from John Mousinho’s ranks currently away on international duty, Saturday’s game against The Valiants goes ahead as planned (3pm kick-off).

It’s also worth noting that Pompey’s fixtures over the Easter break – against MK Dons and Morecambe respectively – will also be available for UK streaming via iFollow.

That’s because both 3pm kick-off matches are being played on bank holidays – Good Friday (MK Dons, April 7) and Easter Monday (Morecambe, April 10).

All funds generated through iFollow head straight back into the club.
