Portsmouth vs Coventry City Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Sridhar in Championship Predictions
Portsmouth will push to get out of the Championship relegation zone when they host mid-table Coventry this weekend. This match at Fratton Park between the 22nd-placed Pompey and the 15th-placed Sky Blues on Saturday comes with a chance for both teams to improve their standings.
Coventry have 24 points from 21 matches, while Portsmouth have 17 points from 19 games. The hosts are one point behind the safety spots ahead of this weekend’s fixtures after getting thrashed 4-0 by Derby. It was a match decided within the first 30 minutes and halted a four-game unbeaten run for Portsmouth, when they won and drew two matches each.
Fratton Park has been a happy hunting ground in recent times for Portsmouth, with two wins and a draw from their last three league matches here.
Coventry are coming off a 2-1 win over Hull, which was their second victory across the last three league games, and will look to end Portsmouth’s home dominance. The Sky Blues are 10 points behind the top six places and can still dream of bridging that gap but need a bit of consistency in results. They have won consecutive league games just once this season, and that’s a huge statement of their inconsistency.
It’s their away form that needs a bit of work, as Coventry have had indifferent results across their last six league trips—winning, drawing, and losing two games each.

Our Portsmouth vs Coventry City Prediction
Portsmouth endured a rough evening last time out when they conceded three goals within the first 30 minutes to eventually lose 4-0. With a relegation threat lurking, they need to turn things around. Coventry have a chance to push for a top-six spot, but on current form that looks a distant dream. The visitors need a bit of consistency and could push for goals here, something that’s been a constant factor in their recent matches. Our prediction for Portsmouth vs Coventry City is over 2.5 goals.
