LiontipsPortsmouth vs Millwall. Championship match prediction and betting tips
Command Analysis
Current form
Portsmouth approached the start of the season as one of the main candidates for relegation from the Championship, inferior in selection of players to many competitors. In the first round, Pompey did not look their best and spent a lot of time in the relegation zone, but so far they do not give the impression of a hopeless outsider. With 29 points, John Mosinho team currently occupies 21st place in the table and is two points ahead of the relegation zone, there is a chance to increase this handicap today. Having lost 1:5 to West Bromwich in the last round, Portsmouth interrupted a series of two victories in a row.

In the last round, Millwall beat Luton 1:0 away, thus breaking a series of six matches without a win in the championship.

2.47Tip and bets
Portsmouth looks more than decent in home matches, as for the 21st team in the championship, and will probably also count on all three points today, paying maximum attention to the attack. It is obvious that Millwall does not have many chances to play to zero today, there is no particular reliability in defense, and the guests are generally far from the peak of form. At the same time, the Lions have enough experience to respond to a direct competitor, in the last round they managed to beat a strong Luton away, Portsmouth defense, especially, should not become a serious obstacle.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. Prediction - both will score . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.99
Bet on the outcome
Portsmouth are on the brink of collapse, but at home they play very high-level football and take most of their points at home – six of their seven wins this season have been at home, 22 of their 27 points have been scored at Fratton Park. Millwall are far from their best form, do not have a serious advantage in class, it makes sense to give preference to the motivated hosts in such a match.
