How does the cost of Portsmouth FCs home shirt compare to Southampton? | OneFootball

FLW takes a look at the costs of both Portsmouth's and Southampton's respective 2024/25 home shirts...

Portsmouth and Southampton share one of the fiercest rivalries in English football, with cult-heroes being born in blue and red shirts thanks to iconic goals and moments in the South Coast Derby.

Many of the clashes between the two clubs have come in the football league, with their last meeting being a League Cup tie in 2019, in which Southampton ran out 4-0 winners at Fratton Park.

However, they haven't contested a league fixture since 2012, in a 2011/12 Championship season that saw Pompey suffer relegation to League One, whilst the Saints won automatic promotion to the Premier League.

That could soon change though, as should Portsmouth survive in the second tier this season and Southampton drop out of the top-flight, the two rivals will renew their rivalry in the Championship in 2025.

So, whilst the two clubs play in different leagues than one another this year, do the prices of their respective 2024/25 home shirts reflect that? FLW investigates...
