Portsmouth vs Arsenal Preview and Team News
Portsmouth Team News
Portsmouth have been unbeaten in four of their last five matches. In their recent 0-5 defeat to Bristol City, they were thoroughly outplayed by their opponents and limited to just 38% possession.
Their attacking output was significantly reduced to a mere five shots, two of which were on target, and an xG of 0.42. Even their passing accuracy of 77% doesn’t inspire much confidence ahead of the Arsenal game.
Portsmouth have a lengthy injury list which includes the likes of Callum Lang, Colby Bishop, Connor Ogilvie, Florian Bianchini, Josh Knight, Josh Murphy, Mark Kosznovszky, Marlon Pack, and Thomas Waddingham.
Portsmouth predicted lineup vs Arsenal (3-4-3): Schmid; Bowat, Shaughnessy, Poole; Swanson, Dozzell, Le Roux, Devlin; Segecic, Kirk, Swift.
Arsenal Team News
Arsenal come here on the back of a goalless draw against defending Premier League champions Liverpool. They’ve been unbeaten in all of their last five outings, three of which were victories and two were draws.
Striker Victor Gyokeres posted a high passing accuracy of 86% against Liverpool and created a chance without going on to score. Winger Bukayo Saka also recorded an 85% passing accuracy.
The upcoming game shouldn’t be too difficult for the visitors, as they are the leaders of the Premier League.
The Gunners have three players ruled out of this fixture: Cristhian Mosquera, Max Dowman, and Riccardo Calafiori. Kai Havertz, meanwhile, is doubtful due to fitness concerns.
Arsenal predicted lineup vs Portsmouth (4-3-3): Raya; Lewis-Skelly, Gabriel, Saliba, Timber; Rice, Zubimendi, Odegaard; Trossard, Gyokeres, Saka.
Portsmouth vs Arsenal Prediction
- Pick: Arsenal to win
- Odds: -435 (20Bet)
- Correct score prediction: Portsmouth 0-3 Arsenal
This should be a breeze for Arsenal. They play one tier above Portsmouth, and what’s more, sit atop the Premier League. The Gunners have been the best side in the top division this season (49 points), whereas their opponents are 21st in the Championship. The gulf in class between the teams is evident. Arsenal also beat Portsmouth 2-0 when these two clubs last met in this competition, back in 2020.
Portsmouth vs Arsenal Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Both teams to score – NO
- Odds: -132 (20Bet)
We expect only Arsenal to score here and keep a clean sheet. The Gunners’ attackers – Bukayo Saka, Leandro Trossard, and Victor Gyokeres (14 combined league goals) – should overpower the hosts comfortably.
As for their defenders, they’ve conceded just nine goals in the league away from home and should be able to tighten the screws against Portsmouth. We saw the same prediction play out when these teams last met.
