On 11th December 2023, the League One match between Portsmouth and Bolton Wanderers culminated with the home team taking the victory, supported by statistical dominance in key factors.

Both goals were scored by Portsmouth, one in each half, allowing them to secure a 2-0 victory. One reveals a concerted assault from Portsmouth early in the match, reflected by their goal at 00:44:57. The second goal found the back of Bolton’s net at 01:27:56, well into the second half, indicating that Portsmouth was able to maintain offensive momentum throughout the game.

Statistically speaking, both teams were comparable in their discipline, as evidenced by the number of fouls committed – 14 by Portsmouth and 12 by Bolton. In contrast, where the game truly tilted in Portsmouth's favor lay in their ability to utilise the set-piece opportunities, as reflected by their domination in corner kicks - a significant 6 to Bolton’s singular corner.

In terms of yellow cards, both teams were also neck in neck as they continued the aggressive play conditions. Bolton picked up more cards, with a total of 4 compared to Portsmouth's 3. These offenses predominantly occurred in the second half, potentially indicating growing frustration from Bolton, and a slightly more reckless style being adopted as they tried to recover from a goal deficit.

One glaring factor from the game, was Bolton's complete lack of offsides compared to Portsmouth's 4. This coupled with little to no risk taken through the game drew attention to Bolton's conservative approach. An often overlooked part of football, offsides can be an indicative measure of a team's offensive ventures and ambition. Portsmouth's 4 offsides, contrasted heavily with Bolton's 0, highlighting their forward pressing approach.

Summarily, Portsmouth's aggressive, forward-pressing approach, was ultimately the deciding factor in their victory. Their ability to create and utilize set-piece opportunities, maintain momentum throughout the match and make risky offensive plays, set them apart. Despite the comparably high number of fouls and yellow cards on both sides, Portsmouth demonstrated a tactical advantage that Bolton was unable to match effectively.
