There are just 12 games remaining for Portsmouth to preserve their Championship status and a nerve-shredding run-in will get underway with a visit to fellow strugglers Blackburn Rovers on Saturday lunchtime.
Pompey hold a five-point advantage on the three sides currently sitting in the relegation zone and we already know one of them will spend next season in League One after Sheffield Wednesday’s relegation was officially confirmed following their recent derby defeat to Sheffield United.

Making the most of every opportunity that falls their way will dictate whether Pompey remain in the second tier when the curtain comes down on the campaign in May - but how does the quality of the chances they create compare to their rivals across the second tier? We take a look at where Pompey’s average xG (expected goals) ranks.
