Match Prediction
The season so far has highlighted contrasting fortunes for the two teams. Portsmouth find themselves closer to the relegation zone than the promotion play-off places, while Stoke are challenging within the top six. Although head-to-head records show very little to separate the sides—with Pompey holding a slight edge—the hosts have historically dominated league meetings at Fratton Park, winning five of their last six encounters and losing just once.
Additionally, Stoke are yet to win on the road this campaign, enduring a four-game winless streak with two losses. Despite recent struggles for both teams to clinch victories, Portsmouth’s home dominance and current form suggest they are likely to edge out a narrow win.
