---

Portsmouth’s woes continued in the Championship in midweek as the south coast club stumbled to yet another loss, this time a 3-0 defeat away from home at Sheffield United which has resulted in Pompey dropping down to 20th place in the Championship table.

Pompey have managed to capture just one win in their last eight matches overall which came last time out at Fratton Park in the shape of a 3-1 home win against Millwall, but having lost five of their last seven games, John Mousinho’s side will be desperate to set the record straight here in this Saturday lunchtime clash.

However, the hosts have a chance of getting something from this fixture as Portsmouth recorded a 3-0 win over Bristol City in their last encounter at Fratton Park.

Bristol City have also stumbled in recent weeks in the Championship despite sitting in 7th place in the second tier table as The Robins have also found league wins hard to come by after securing just one win in their last five games overall.

That rare highlight came by way of a 3-0 home win against Swansea City but losses to Stoke City, Blackburn Rovers and Wrexham respectively, along with a draw at Watford suggests Gerhard Struber’s side may not have it all their own way in this lunchtime encounter.

Indeed, Bristol City possess an average looking away record of 3-3-2 11/10 and includes failing to win any of their last three outings on the road (D1, L2) so The Robins could have their work cut out down on the south coast.

The Betting Verdict

Both Portsmouth and Bristol City head into this upcoming fixture in ordinary form but the hosts look a decent bet to grind out a point.

Portsmouth 1-0 Bristol City
