Portsmouth and Sheffield United go head to head in the Championship round 32, with the Pompey struggling through a lengthy injury list, evident in their 1-0 loss to Preston. Anyhow, we predict a 1-1 draw as the Blades are not regarded as good travellers. The hosts have been inconsistent at home, winning only 40% of their matches, but averaging 3 goals per home game and seeing BTTS in 80% of home fixtures, highlighting attacking potential despite defensive frailties. Key absences may limit their effectiveness, particularly in midfield.
Sheffield United, coming off a 2-1 defeat to Middlesbrough, will be without an important January signing suspended after a red card. The Blades have been stronger away from home historically, though their away win rate is only 20%, with an average of 3 goals per game, and BTTS in 60% of trips, showing they remain dangerous even on the road. Both sides have a history of competitive clashes, with the Blades winning 4 of 7 H2H matches.
Considering high BTTS rates for Portsmouth at home and Sheffield away, we are tempted to place our bets on Both Teams to Score, alongside Half-Time Draw and Draw.
This Championship match will be played on Saturday 14 February 2026 at 15:00.
