Goals from Jaden Philogene and George Hirst saw Town to a comfortable 2-1 home victory over Portsmouth. Philogene got the Blues up and running with his fourth goal in two games in the 10th minute and Hirst all but sealed the win four minutes just prior to half-time with his third of the season. Sub Ivan Azon hit the post late on before Marlon Pack pulled one back for Pompey in injury time but Town were not to be denied their first back-to-back league wins since the end of the 2023/24 promotion season.  47
