Chesterfield vs Portsmouth Prediction & Betting Tips - FA Cup
by Steve Ashfield | in FA Cup Predictions
National League leaders Chesterfield host Portsmouth in the first round of the FA Cup. Their opponents are top of League One, two levels above Chesterfield. The home side are in excellent form and will be hoping this is the season when they win promotion back to the English Football League. They are two points clear at the table with a game in hand on Barnet. It was in 2018 that the Spireites lost their league status and so nearly won the promotion play-off final last season, losing to Notts County on penalties after twice leading. They come into this match having won 12 of their 13 games with only one goal conceded in the last five played. 12 goals have been scored in their last three matches. That includes a 5-0 win over Kettering Town (the highest scorers in FA Cup history) in the fourth qualifying round. Last season they reached the FA Cup third round with a home win over Northampton Town and a home 3-3 draw with West Bromwich Albion.
Portsmouth are the highest placed side currently in the FA Cup and won the trophy in 1939 and 2008. Now they are top of League One hoping to get back into the Championship for the first time since 2012. They are three points clear at the top of League One and last lost in the first round of this competition in 2018. You have to go back to March of this year for the last time they lost over 90 minutes but three of their last six away matches have ended level. We recommend a double chance bet on Chesterfield to win or draw this FA Cup match.
