Prediction: 1-2
Portsmouth
All eyes will be on Pirelli Stadium when Burton Albion and Portsmouth take on each other at Burton upon Trent in what is expected to be a very exciting game. The Brewers aim to bounce back from a 4-2 loss to Swindon, and they are likely to go all guns blazing at the Pompey on Matchday 4. Burton are tough to beat at home, but they face a difficult task in Saturday’s football match against the promotion-chasing side.
Portsmouth, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 2-1 loss to Wigan. The Pompey did not make a flying start to the season, but the game against Burton could be the turning point for Kenny Jackett’s troops. Considering that fans are not yet allowed to enter stadiums in England, we predict that the Pompey will return to winning ways in the League One.
