Portsmouth FC Middlesbrough v Portsmouth injury news as 10 out and 4 doubts By Jordan Jones EFL and Midlands football writer Comment Published 24th Aug 2024, 05:00 BST Newcomer Josh Murphy caught the eye for Pompey during pre-season. Picture: Jason Brown/ProSportsImages | Jason Brown/ProSportsImages Pompey make the long trip up north to Teesside as they play Middlesbrough at the Riverside Stadium in the EFL Championship. Middlesbrough is the second longest away trip of the season for Pompey with only Sunderland further away from their Fratton Park base.

Boro have one win and one draw this season, having opened their campaign with a win against Swansea City, but suffered defeat against Derby County last weekend. Pompey haven't played Middlesbrough since March 2012, and back then Boro won 3-1. In fact, Pompey are winless in their last five against the opposition, with their last win being in September 2008 when the two were in the Premier League.
