Portsmouth have been flying so far this season in Sky Bet League One but a recent dip in results has seen them lose top spot.

Indeed, they lost to Luton last night in a top of the table clash and so some might just start to worry about the patch of form they are in.

For Ian Holloway, though, Pompey will still be alright this season. We caught up with him to grab his take.

Speaking exclusively to Football League World, he said:

"Everybody has a blip but they've been magnificent.

"Kenny Jackett is one of my mates so I've got plenty of time for him and he's done fantastically well and he has a great record in the division.

"He's with a massive club that is rebuilding and they've been on fire. They've had a bit of a bad run over Christmas and into January but they're still there and so I think they'll come through it and the squad is strong enough.

"Hopefully they'll go from strength-to-strength in the run-in because they've had a fantastic season so far.

"I'm fully expecting them to be getting one of the two automatic spots this season."
