Portsmouth vs Burton Prediction

Portsmouth indeed have a good H2H record against this opposition. Their confidence is high following their impressive win against Oxford United. They still have time win the league and manager John Mousinho will leave no stone unturned. We’ll back Portsmouth to win both halves of this at the 1.95 odds. They recently won both halves of the game against Reading. Also, we cannot ignore the fact that Portsmouth are at the top of the table. The Fratton Park is their favourite place as they have a good winning record. 

Burton did not score a single goal when they faced Cheltenham and Carlisle. Also, the hosts scored very few goals in their last three outings combined. This time as well we will go for under 2.5 goals at the 1.89 odds. Even past encounters tell us that this is the ideal tip. The previous three encounters ended with less than three goals.
