Southampton sit near the top of the Championship form table, but they're pipped to the summit by one familiar enemy.

Southampton sit near the top of the Championship form table, but rival Portsmouth lead the five-match form rankings ahead of them. Under manager Tonda Eckert, the Saints are unbeaten in league play since mid-September, despite recent draws against Bolton Wanderers and West Bromwich Albion. Southampton currently sit four points behind overall league leaders Middlesbrough.
Writer Kelan Sarson notes that Portsmouth have collected four wins and a draw across their last five matches under John Mousinho, sitting just two points behind Southampton in the standings. Sarson also highlights that Southampton would lead the Championship table on goal difference if not for a four-point deduction.
