A Sports Betting Pick by ArmchairPunter
Football : England: Championship
Venue: Fratton Park
Saturday 13th December 2025, 1500hrs (GMT)
Third from bottom Portsmouth play host to Blackburn Rovers in a relegation battle down on the south coast at Fratton Park with the home side in desperate need of all three points following just one win in their last 10 matches overall.
That rare highlight came in the form of a surprising 3-1 home win against Millwall but having also slipped to seven defeats as well within this recent poor period of results, Portsmouth find themselves in the relegation zone ahead of this weekend’s action.
Pompey hold an ordinary looking home record which stands at 3-2-5 9/11 so far at Fratton Park which includes collecting just one win from their last five home games down on the south coast.
Blackburn Rovers occupy 20th place in the Championship table but the Lancashire club do hold a valuable five-point cushion over their upcoming hosts, Portsmouth, ahead of this upcoming trip to Fratton Park.
The visitors are without a win in their last four matches overall in the Championship, picking up points in draws with Wrexham, Ipswich Town and Oxford United along with being handed a 1-0 loss at home against QPR, so they too have experienced some disappointing results of late.
However, Blackburn possess the third-best record away from home in the division with an away record that stands at 5-1-3 10/8 which includes recent victories on their travels at Leicester City, Bristol City and Preston NE respectively in addition to being unbeaten in their last four outings on the road as well.
The Betting Verdict
Blackburn Rovers have won five of the last seven meetings against Portsmouth.
The Pick :
Portsmouth 0-1 Blackburn Rovers
