Match preview

Portsmouth can guarantee a playoff spot in League One by beating Accrington Stanley at Fratton Park this weekend but Danny Cowley's men could have a tough task on their hands.

These sides met in the reverse of this fixture only last month, when the game at the Wham Stadium finished 3-3, and if anything Stanley deserved more from the contest.

Accrington managed 25 shots, ten of which were on target in that game, and they have been problematic opponents for a handful of League One highflyers recently.

They have also held Sunderland and Charlton to stalemates in the last couple of weeks, and although they are locked in mid-table obscurity, recent results suggest they will not simply roll over.

Portsmouth have managed only two wins in their last seven assignments and Accrington could be worth a bet in the double chance market.

Key stat

Accrington Stanley are unbeaten in their last four matches.
