Our prediction for this Championship match:
West Bromwich Albion will look to bounce back from a 2-0 loss to Middlesbrough when they take on Portsmouth on Saturday afternoon. The Baggies have a chance to climb to the playoffs berth, but they will have to showcase their worth on the field. All Bartley, Ajayi, Dike, and Maja are sidelined with injuries for the home side.
The Pompey, on the other hand, have been struggling on the travels of late, with the team losing each of their last six away games in all competitions. As Portsmouth failed to find the net in the previous four matches on the road, home win should be considered. Defender Jordan Williams is rated doubtful for the visiting team after limping off with injury in the midweek triumph, while all Bowat, Farrell, Lane, Poole, Yengi, and Shaughnessy remain in the treatment room, speaking of the visiting team.
