Portsmouth v Stoke City tips
PortsmouthDDWLL
Stoke CityWWDWWStoke come here in fine form while Portsmouth are struggling to pick up wins. The away price of 3.15 looks fair for a side putting together a strong run.
- Stoke arrive at Fratton Park having put together an impressive recent run of form that includes four wins from their last five matches.
- Portsmouth are struggling for consistency at the moment having picked up just two points from their most recent five league outings.
- Stoke can be backed at a decent price of 3.15 to secure another victory on the road against opponents who are sliding down the table.
- Stoke might find it tough to break down a home side that will be desperate to turn their recent defeats around in front of their own fans.
- Portsmouth managed a draw in one of their recent outings which shows they can frustrate teams when they set up to defend properly.
Stoke are scoring regularly in their matches while Portsmouth will want to get on the scoresheet at home.
Neither defence looks entirely secure based on recent matches so we might see a few goals go in.

Edge Analysis
The market makes Portsmouth the side to beat here at 41%, which gives this game a clear shape before a ball is kicked. Our model lands on Stoke City, and it backs that with a 2 units stake. Stoke come here in fine form while Portsmouth are struggling to pick up wins. The away price of 3.15 looks fair for a side putting together a strong run.
Portsmouth come in poor, winning 28% of 40 on record. 6 of their 20 home games went their way, and the numbers point to a fairly even scoring record. Right now they are on 2 draws in a row.
Stoke City come in patchy, winning 35% of 40 on record. 5 of their 20 away games went their way, and the numbers point to a fairly even scoring record. Right now they are on 2 wins in a row.
The prices turn into 41% for POR, 29% for the draw and 30% for STK once the bookmaker margin is stripped out. That is a firm lean toward Portsmouth, so the question is whether the form backs the price or quietly argues against it. Our call sits at 3.15, and we only stake it because the reasons for it outweigh the reasons against.
Across 1 past meetings STK have had the better of it, 1 wins to 0, with 0 drawn. Squads change, so read it as colour rather than proof.

Old meetings are worth less than they look. Squads change, managers change, and a result from two seasons ago tells you almost nothing about this one.
