- Sadler’s side claimed a first win away at Sheffield United before following that up with a triumph over Sunderland at Fratton Park
- Last time out, Pompey drew 0-0 away at local rivals Southampton
- Key to their recent good form has been Sophie Quirk, who has three league goals to her name this term
