LiontipsPortsmouth - Southampton: betting tip (CF 2.13) and bets on the English Championship match (January 25, 2026) from UPU
Command Analysis
After 26 games in the English Championship, Portsmouth has 29 points to its credit and occupies a saving 21st place in the standings. At the moment, the Pompeys are one point ahead of their rivals from the danger zone and are on a two-match unbeaten streak. In the last game, John Mousinho's team exchanged goals with Watford (1-1). The squad is quite capable of fighting for a place in the second most important English league, but it needs to improve the game both in defense and in attack.
Southampton continues to fight for the TOP 6 and is currently seven points behind sixth-placed Preston. The Saints have not been playing very confidently since the start of the championship and are on the 15th line in the standings with 36 points in the asset, but the team should not be discounted in the battle for the playoff zone. In the last round, Thond Eckert's team beat Sheffield United (1-0), and lost to Hull (1-2) the match before.
Trends

2.65Tip and bets
The Saints continue to fight for a place in the playoffs, which means that the team will not just give points to an opponent who is fighting for survival in the Championship and cannot win four consecutive matches against his counterpart. Southampton play attacking football without a midfield, and in this match it is difficult to believe in Preston's success. We believe that the guests will earn three points again.
Prediction – Southampton win with a coefficient of 2.13
