Leeds vs Portsmouth Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Kennedy Kechula in Championship Predictions
Leeds United, who were heartbeat away from promotion last season, are set to host promoted Portsmouth in their opening Championship game. As the Whites host Pompey in the two teams’ first match since 2012, here’s our preview and prediction.
Leeds were one of the most exciting teams to watch in the Championship last season. However, that couldn’t guarantee them a Premier League return as they lost in the playoffs. After a razor-thin margin between success and disappointment, the feeling is that Leeds still have the quality.
This is despite losing some key players, including Crysensio Summerville. The hosts won both their preseason matches and will hope it engineers a revival from their late collapse last season. Leeds United managed just two wins from their last nine competitive matches. They had a slow start to last season too, failing to win any of their opening three league games.
Portsmouth’s promotion after winning the League One title has reignited the away fans’ passion and an electric atmosphere is expected at Elland Road. Pompey failed to hold on to loanee Abu Kamara but have made some interesting signings to strengthen the team.
Their biggest strength last season was their self-belief and it remains the highest quality they carry to the Championship. They won 28 of their 46 matches and though the challenge gets tougher, the visitors should be able to cope here.
Portsmouth wrapped up preseason with a 2-0 loss to Charlton Athletic but will focus more on the positives. Those include three wins in their five off-season games. Competitively, they have one loss in 19 matches and are unbeaten in the last 10 away. This is the kind of form manager John Mousinho will hope to take to the Championship.
