Millwall vs Portsmouth Team News

Millwall v Portsmouth team news indicates that both sides will be looking to field their strongest possible line-ups as they chase valuable points. Millwall, under the management of Alex Neil, will be keen to bounce back after a narrow 1-0 defeat to Sunderland in their last outing. Despite this setback, The Lions have shown resilience at home, winning 8 of their 19 matches at The Den this season.

Portsmouth, managed by John Mousinho, come into this fixture following a morale-boosting 1-0 victory against Blackburn Rovers. However, their away form has been a concern, with only 2 wins from 19 games on the road. The defensive frailties of Pompey, who have conceded 43 goals away from home, will be an area of concern as they prepare to face a Millwall side looking to capitalise on their home advantage.

Millwall vs Portsmouth Betting Tips

Millwall v Portsmouth betting tips suggest that the home side are in a strong position to claim all three points. Millwall’s dominant head-to-head record against Portsmouth, combined with their solid home form, makes them favourites for this encounter.

Both Teams to Score (BTTS) – No – Millwall have been defensively sound at home, while Portsmouth have failed to score in 7 away fixtures this season.

Millwall -1 Handicap – Portsmouth’s struggles on the road, coupled with Millwall’s ability to control games at The Den, make this an attractive option.

Millwall vs Portsmouth Match Predictions

Our Millwall v Portsmouth prediction leans heavily towards a home victory. The Lions have won all of their last five meetings against Portsmouth, highlighting their dominance in this fixture. Additionally, Millwall have performed well against teams below them in the league, securing 8 wins from 20 matches.

Portsmouth’s poor away record, coupled with their defensive vulnerabilities, puts them at a clear disadvantage. While they showed promise in their last game against Blackburn, The Den is a challenging venue, and Millwall’s structured approach under Alex Neil should see them emerge victorious.

Millwall to win. Bet with bet365.
