Prediction: 1-1
Portsmouth
Buoyed by a 2-1 win over Middlesbrough, Sheffield Wednesday will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Portsmouth on Matchday 45. The Owls are stuck in the middle of the table, but they surely want to impress in their last home game of the process. Dutch forward Anthony Musaba is pushing for a start after scoring as a substitute against Middlesbrough, while Irish midfielder Gabriel Otegbayo is a major doubt.
The Pompey, on the other hand, proved their worth in back-to-back wins over Norwich City (5-3) and Watford (1-0) and, as a result, they will compete in the Championship for yet another season. As both Portsmouth and Sheffield Wednesday will be with their guards down in Saturday’s encounter, there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Bear in mind that all Williams, Bishop, and Murphy picked up knocks in the midweek triumph.

Highlighted Team (Portsmouth):
During Milan Mandaric’s era at the club, Portsmouth played an important role in the Premier League, with the team finishing their debut season (2003/2004) in the 13th position in the standings. The club impressed in the 2008/2009 season, with Nwankwo Kanu’s goal helping them beat Cardiff City in the FA Cup final.
As a result, Portsmouth represented England in the Europa League, with the team progressing in the group stages of the competition thanks to a win over Vitoria Gimaraes in the final qualifying round. The current club was formed in 2013, but the original amateur club was founded back in 1883. Nowadays Portsmouth host their rivals at Fratton Park, with the venue holding up to 20,620 spectators.
The likes of Sol Campbell, David James, Glen Johnson and aforementioned Nigeria international Nwankwo Kanu are considered one of the club’s most notable players.
