Bristol City - Portsmouth predictions

Kickoff starts at 16:00 on 29/12/2024 played @ Ashton Gate Stadium refereed by John Busby

With the 1.75 being what they are, we don’t expect anything other than a home win. Pulling off anything else would be a gargantuan task for Portsmouth, so we’d stay away unless you’re looking for a long shot on purpose.

The visitors would need to pull off quite a stunt in order to come out victorious. They are severely outmatched in this outing – the 4.82 away win odds alone should speak volumes.

With a price of 2.16 for winning, Bristol City were expected to come out on top in their previous home game, but the matter was far from one-sided. In the end, though, it went about as expected. The two teams were stuck in a stalemate for a while, but the hosts won thanks to a late-game decider.

Portsmouth weren’t expected to win their previous outing – they were the visiting team at Watford, and most online bookmakers priced an away win at 4.71. Even though they somehow managed to end the first half ahead, Watford came back and secured a 2:1 victory.

Bristol City gans are hoping for better defensive performance then what they’ve seen in away games. The previous three matches featured 6 conceded goals.

Maintaining their defences has been a bit of a struggle for Portsmouth lately. They ended up conceding 5 goals over the 3 most recent matches alone, leaving many fans disappointed.

Though a home win is priced at 1.75, the hosts lost their most recent game against Portsmouth. The two teams played earlier in the season, though Bristol were the visitors and the goal difference was quite narrow.

The hosts may be favourites to win the match, but their lineup is in a somewhat weakened state. Ayman Benarous, Nahki Wells, Sinclair Armstrong are all sidelined due to injury, which makes team from Bristol’s position as favourites a bit shakier than it might seem.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1.93 if you use the Pncl sportsbook.
