Portsmouth will be away to Watford in their next Championship match seeking to steer clear of the relegation zone. They are currently 20th in the 24-team league whereas their hosts are eighth. We have a predi ction for this match below.
This is the first meeting between these two teams in 12 years. Watford are seeking to return to winning ways after a 2-1 loss away to Burnley last weekend snapped a six-match unbeaten run.
The Bees, who have a game in hand on most of the teams above them, have won 10 of 21 fixtures. They have accumulated 34 points and sit just one point from the promotion bracket. Watford haven’t lost at home in the league since April and have won nine of 11 games.
Portsmouth gave their survival hopes a big boost last weekend by defeating Coventry 4-1. John Mousinho’s men have seen their form improve in recent outings and will arrive for this match confident of a positive result.
Pompey have earned 11 points from their last six games. They however sit just two points from the red zone. Portsmouth, who have two games in hand, have amassed 20 points.
They have managed just four wins and drawn a further eight fixtures.

Our Watford vs Portsmouth Prediction
Our prediction for Watford v Portsmouth is for over 2.5 goals to be scored in this match. Both Watford and Portsmouth are above-average scoring sides and are each averaging at least a goal a game.
On the defensive end, they are however both having inconsistent spells and will be out to take advantage of this. There is therefore a strong chance of seeing one if not both teams scoring more than once. Portsmouth's quest to avoid the relegation zone and Watford’s promotion-chasing hopes add to the intensity of this tie.
