LiontipsPortsmouth - Arsenal: betting tip (CF 2.12) and bets on the FA Cup match
Command Analysis
Current form
Portsmouth is not pleasing its fans this season. In the Championship, John Mousinho's team scored only 25 points in 24 rounds, with which they occupy 21st place, coming off just one point from the relegation zone. In the last round, there was a crushing defeat by Bristol City on the road with a score of 0:5. It is worth noting that in that meeting, the head coach went to a decent rotation of the squad, gave many leaders a rest on the eve of the cup game with Arsenal. In the Championship, Portsmouth usually performs better at their home stadium, where they scored 18 of the total 25 points.
Disqualifications and injuries
Bishop, Peck, Kosnowski, Lang, Murphy are injured.
Interesting betting trends
- In three of the last five matches, Portsmouth has not won in the first half.
- The exchange of goals scored was recorded in four of Portsmouth's previous five matches.
Approximate composition: Schmid – Devlin, Matthews, Poole, Swanson–Dozzell, Le Roux– Segechic, Chaplin, Blair– Kirk.
Current form
Arsenal are approaching the upcoming cup meeting after battling Liverpool in the Premier League. In that meeting, the Gunners had the advantage, created a decent number of dangerous chances, but failed to win (0-0). Nevertheless, competitors have often lost points lately, and the Londoners are leading the standings, six points ahead of the chasing duo of Manchester City and Aston Villa. Throughout the season, Mikel Arteta's team has been confidently playing matches against opponents who are noticeably inferior in class. Of the failures, in fact, we can only recall the 2-2 draw with Sunderland in the Premier League.
Disqualifications and injuries
Mosquera, Domen and Calafiori are in the Arsenal infirmary. Entering the Inkapier field is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- In three consecutive matches involving Arsenal, a draw was recorded in the first half.
- Arsenal have not lost by offside in 12 of their previous 13 matches.
Approximate composition: Arrizabalaga – White, Timber, Saliba, Lewis-Skelly – Merino, Nergor, Eze– Madueke, Jesus, Martinelli.

Portsmouth have suffered four recent defeats with a "dry" score.
6.40Tip and bets
It is unlikely that there will be any intrigue in the upcoming match. Arsenal has clearly shown this season that they intend to fight for titles in all the tournaments they participate in. In the League Cup, the Londoners have already reached the semi-finals, next up is the FA Cup, where the opponent in the first round is noticeably inferior in class. The Gunners in the same League Cup, despite the rotation of the squad, did not underestimate their opponents, we do not think that this will happen today. Due to the tangible advantage in the class, Arsenal is able to win confidently, with a margin, especially since Portsmouth does not shine even at the Championship level, fighting for survival.
Our betting tip is that Arsenal will win with an Asian handicap (-1.5) by a factor of 2.12
Bet on the total
Portsmouth are vulnerable defensively, having conceded five goals against Bristol City the day before. Arsenal performs well in matches against opponents who are inferior in class, the Londoners are able to score their three or four goals today.
The second bet is Arsenal's individual goal total of more than 2.5 with a coefficient of 2.03
Betting on corners
In the last 18 matches, Arsenal have only lost twice on corners. Obviously, the Londoners will dictate their terms on the field today, spend a lot of time at someone else's goal and most likely win with a decent advantage in terms of the number of corners taken.
Prediction – Arsenal win on corners with a handicap (-3.5) with a coefficient of 1.78
