    Pompey secured a second consecutive clean sheet but were unable to break the deadlock against Charlton at The Valley, finishing 0-0. The team struggled in the first half, with Millenic Alli missing a clear opportunity against his former side. Charlton dominated much of the second half, creating several chances of their own. Despite the pressure, neither side managed to find a winner.

Goals came from Arabella Suttie before half-time and Kerry Beattie, while Zoe Barratt added a brace in the second half to secure all three points.

The hosts created early chances but the Blues controlled the game and finished strongly.
