Fratton Park will host a high-stakes clash as Portsmouth take on Leicester City, with both sides desperate for points in their respective battles.As both sides are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach, we predict a 2-2 draw. Portsmouth head into the match after a morale-boosting 2-0 win over Ipswich, but their overall form remains shaky, collecting just 0.90 points per game from the last 10 matches. The Pompey average 1.00 goal scored and 1.60 conceded, with BTTS landing in 60% of those fixtures. The hosts have no fresh injury concerns, which should allow them to field their strongest XI.
Leicester, meanwhile, are also struggling, winless in their last five and managing just a 10% win rate across the last 10 matches. The Foxes average 1.00 goal scored and 1.30 conceded, with 80% of their away matches seeing both teams score. However, injuries to Kristiansen and Ramsey could limit their options. Head-to-head meetings suggest goals, with 83% of the last six encounters producing BTTS, pointing to an open contest.
As both sides show strong BTTS trends and shaky defenses, we are tempted to bet on Both Teams to Score, alongside Over 2.5 goals and Draw (small stake).
This Championship match will be played on Saturday 18 April 2026 at 12:30.
