Prediction: 2-2
Portsmouth
Crewe Alexandra and Portsmouth face each other at Alexandra Stadium in what is expected to be a very exciting game. The Railwaymen aim to bounce back from a 2-0 loss to Peterborough, with the team eyeing their eighth home win of the process. Crewe are eager to move closer to the playoffs berth, and we are positive that they will go for a win in Saturday’s derby. The Pompey, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-0 win over Swindon Town.
Portsmouth are eager to regain their spot in top two, and given their attacking potential, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. In their last meeting in the League One Portsmouth recorded a 4-1 win over Crewe, which is yet another reason why a highs-scoring affair is on the cards. Jack Whatmough returns from suspension for the visitors.
