After suffering a 3-1 loss to West Ham in their EFL Cup round 1, Portsmouth will look to get back on course when they welcome QPR in their Championship opener. The Pompey have strengthened their squad with permanent deals for Calum Ward, Dennis Cirkin, Tariq Lamptey and Boy Kemper, while their recent home form offers encouragement. Portsmouth have won 50% of their last 10 home matches, scoring 1.50 goals per game and conceding only 0.75. They have also kept a clean sheet in half of those fixtures, highlighting their defensive strength at Fratton Park.
QPR, meanwhile, suffered a heartbreaking penalty defeat to Millwall in their EFL Cup opener and will be eager to respond. Returnee Alfie Lloyd is pushing for a starting berth, as is Ghana midfielder Kwame Poku, while the club managed to retain last season's top scorer Richard Kone. QPR have won 40% of their last 10 games, scoring an impressive 2.00 goals per match. Their previous nine meetings with Portsmouth have been evenly split, with three wins apiece and three draws, while 67% produced BTTS.
As BTTS landed in 67% of the last nine H2Hs, we believe that punters from all four corners of the world can find value in betting on Both Teams to Score, alongside Over 1.5 goals (100% H2H) and Draw.
Over 1.5 Goals: All nine previous meetings produced at least two goals.
This Championship match will be played on Saturday 15 August 2026 at 15:00.
