Bottom of the table Portsmouth go in search of their first home win of the season when they face Sheffield Wednesday.

 

Portsmouth vs Sheffield Wednesday Prediction

Portsmouth found themselves trailing 2-0 after just 13 minutes on Tuesday night but were unable to muster a response as they left the Cardiff City Stadium pointless. 

John Mousinho's men have the worst home record in the Championship this season with three points collected from a possible 15. 

Sheffield Wednesday were unable to find a way past a characteristically stubborn Swansea defence in midweek as the Hillsborough crowd watched over a goalless draw. 

The Owls are unbeaten in back-to-back away league matches after losing three in a row to kick off the campaign.

Score Prediction: Portsmouth 1-1 Sheffield Wednesday

Portsmouth vs Sheffield Wednesday Team News

  • John Mousinho suffered some wicked injury luck on Tuesday night as both Paddy Lane and Nicolas Schmid picked up issues against Cardiff. 
  • With Schmid and first-choice goalkeeper Will Norris sidelined, Jordan Archer will get a chance in between the sticks on Friday night. 
  • Danny Röhl could make one change to the side that faced Swansea on Tuesday night with Josh Windass replacing Svante Igelsson. 
  • Centre-back Michael Ihiekwe is a doubt as he continues to manage an Achilles problem.

Portsmouth vs Sheffield Wednesday Bet Builder Tips

Our bet builder tips for Portsmouth vs Sheffield Wednesday features match result to be a draw, Barry Bannan over 1.5 shots and Callum Lang over 0.5 shots on target.

At the time of publishing it is a best price of 10/1 with bet365.

Portsmouth have drawn three of their last five home games and have failed to beat Sheffield Wednesday the previous five times these two sides have met.

Sheffield Wednesday have failed to score in three of their last four games and are winless in their last two. I expect a low scoring game in which both sides cancel each other out.

Barry Bannan averages 1.5 shots a game and has hit this line in four of his last six 90 minute appearances for the Owls.

Callum Lang averages 2.8 shots a game and has hit the target in his last three games.
