Match result - Draw

Picking a winner in this one is like trying to find that proverbial needle in the haystack. Why, I hear you ask? Because every stat contradicts another stat.

For instance, Portsmouth are coming into this game on the back of a 5-1 pasting away at West Brom. But then again they have won six of their last seven at home, and haven’t tasted defeat at Fratton Park since October.

Millwall, on the other hand, have won four straight head-to-head encounters with Pompey. However, their recent away record fails to fill us with confidence, considering they’ve won one measly game out of seven on the road. Bearing all that in mind, we’re backing the draw. 

 

Both teams to score

Portsmouth have scored 36 goals in the Championship this season – 22 of them have come at Fratton Park.

In their last four at home, Pompey have rattled the net 13 times, scoring four times against Coventry and Swansea alone.

Millwall are also capable of scoring. The London outfit have been kept at bay just once in their previous five outings. 

 

Portsmouth corners over 5.5

When it comes to their home form, Portsmouth are a dangerous attacking outfit. This is good news for all of you stat geeks out there who count corners.

Pompey have seen over 5.5 corners for 11 home games in a row – including 20 across their last three at Fratton Park.

 

Booking points over 42.5

Portsmouth’s last six games at home have delivered in bookings almost in the same value as they have in goals.

There’s been 26 bookings across the last six games at Fratton Park. When you couple that with Millwall’s poor disciplinary performance last time out, we should be in for a tasty game.
