Match Facts

  • Hull are unbeaten in their last three league meetings with Portsmouth (W1 D2), with their two last season both ending 1-1 – the Tigers haven’t gone four without loss vs Pompey since 1980 (5 in a row).

  • Portsmouth have only lost on one of their last 11 league visits to Hull City (W5 D5), losing 1-0 in September 2011 under Steve Cotterill.

  • Hull City have won four of their seven home league games this season (D2 L1) and could already match their win tally from the whole of last season at the MKM stadium (W5 D8 L10). 

  • Portsmouth have failed to score in each of their last three Championship matches (D1 L2), and could go four in a row without scoring in the second tier for the first time since December 1999 (a run of five).

  • Joe Gelhardt has scored eight goals in 15 league starts at home in the Championship for Hull City, and only Norwich City’s Josh Sargent (10) has netted more home goals in 2025 than the Leeds United loanee. 11 of his 17 league goals during his career have come in Yorkshire (9 in Hull, 1 in Leeds, 1 in Rotherham).
