Goal Statistics

A PG of 2.0 is fairly strong for Norwich City in their clash with Portsmouth, as is their run of scoring 1 goal or more in 20 consecutive Championship games.

Goals have been an issue for Portsmouth of late. It has been 6 Championship matches since they last scored more than 1, and a PG of 1.0 suggests they'll have problems ending that run on Friday afternoon against Norwich City.
