Portsmouth vs Sheffield Wednesday prediction
Portsmouth won their first Championship clash on Saturday against QPR, who are also amongst the relegation zone and were bottom when Pompey beat them 2-1 away from home.
It was a much-needed win but one that was somewhat expected.
They’ve put in some good but also terrible performances this season and are tough to predict, like drawing 3-3 to Leeds.
Also, losing 6-1 to Stoke three weeks ago having just a few days before picked up a huge point against unbeaten Sheffield United.
Sheffield Wednesday on the other hand have been in better recent form, albeit they did lose 2-0 to Burnley at the weekend, but they are chasing promotion.
Their 0-0 draw against Swansea on Tuesday night is an encouraging enough sign for this game to go their way with a quick turnaround needed with the game just a couple of days away.
Portsmouth vs Sheffield Wednesday betting tips
These two last met in League One in the 2022/23 season and have both been promoted since.
But Sheffield Wednesday have gone five games unbeaten against Portsmouth, alternating between winning and drawing spanning back to their Division 1 clash in 2003 to the 2021/22 and 22/23 campaign.
Wednesday have beaten Portsmouth 4-1 at home before drawing 3-3 and even winning 1-0 in their latest clash at Fratton Park.
They both are reasonably hard to pick out a particular result and in typical Championship fashion have been both resilient against some tough sides and torn apart by others.
Portsmouth may well utilise their home advantage this time though and get another much needed win.
But it’s much safer betting wise to opt for goals, as both have been poor enough defensively, with both sides desperate to get a result.
