Portsmouth - Swansea City predictions

Portsmouth have their work cut out for them if they want to beat Swansea City. They are widely considered to be the weaker team – though the difference is not huge, to be fair. Overall, it’s shaping up to be an exciting showdown.

The visitors are not walking into an easy match by any means, but they should be able to come out on top. Winning this match will be a welcome boost to their rankings, though such an outcome is priced at 2.45.

Portsmouth’s previous Championship match did not go their way, but not even the most stubborn fans would have predicted a different result against a team as strong as Bristol City . They played as visitors, and the top online bookmakers priced an away win at 5.36. They never recovered from some early concessions, and the score was brought to a conclusive 3:0 result before the end.

The Swans’s previous Championship match ended in victory, though it was a close one. Top online bookmakers considered them to have the upper hand against Luton Town going in. While the first half was inconclusive, they bagged a 2:1 home win.

Looking over the home team’s recent record, we can see a worrying trend. They’ve conceded more than 5 goals over the past 3 matches alone, indicating problems in their defensive lineup.

Swansea City don’t seem to have any issues in the goal-scoring department. Their most recent records show they’ve score more than 5 goals over the last 3 matches, so they’re on a bit of a positive trend already.

The most recent result from these two teams recorded is from earlier in the season when the teams clashed. It ended in a draw, which is worse news for Swansea City because they are largely considered the stronger team.

The hosts weren’t considered likely to win either way, but they are in a slightly worse position now. Jacob Farrell, Matt Ritchie, H. Blair have all been injured recently, leaving the team’s coach with a narrower range of options.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 1.94, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
