Portsmouth

Wrexham and Portsmouth face each other in an eagerly-awaited Championship game. As both sides are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach, we predict a 2-2 draw. The Dragons have been unpredictable of late, but their recent 5-3 thriller over Ipswich shows they can score freely even when the likes of Cacace, James, and O’Connor are sidelined. Wrexham averages 1.6 goals pe ... Read More...
