Watford are officially out of contention for a place in the top six, even as they prepare for their visit to Portsmouth. With three matches to go, it is almost a guarantee that Portsmouth will survive. Let’s have a look at the match prediction.
Hosts Portsmouth are seeking to avoid a straight return to League One. As things are, they need just three more points to confirm survival. There hasn’t been much fanfare in Portsmouth’s season, winning just 13 of their 43 matches.
However, Pompey have mostly enjoyed home fixtures, with 10 of those wins coming at Fratton Park. Ahead of this game, they trounced Norwich City 5-3 away from home.
Watford’s confirmation of missing out on promotion was sealed in a 2-1 loss at home to Burnley in their last match. This has been coming, with their form in recent matches deteriorating.
The Hornets have suffered three defeats in their last four matches, and this means the most they can achieve is 65 points. That would still be short.
With just one win in the last six matches, Tom Cleverley’s side can best start thinking of strengthening for a better challenge next season. Away from home, Watford suffered three straight defeats and are winless in the last four.

Our Portsmouth vs Watford Prediction
This match means more to Portsmouth than Watford. The home team needs three more points to confirm their survival, with three matches remaining. Off the back of a good run at home this season, Portsmouth will be confident of getting what they need to avoid the drop.
Watford, meanwhile, have nothing to play for, as the top six is an unachievable target. Their recent form has also not been the best. Our prediction for Portsmouth v Watford is that Portsmouth wins the match.
