Draw 1-1

Reason for tip

Portsmouth have drawn three of their last six away trips and they head to an in-form side who are unbeaten across their last 13 games. The hosts haven’t been beaten at home since April, so back them to secure a draw.

Table-toppers face-off

One of the standout games of this weekend’s FA Cup First Round comes in Chesterfield, as the National League leaders host the top side in League One. Portsmouth are the highest-ranked side in this round of the cup, as they’re on course for a return to the Championship.

Despite Pomey’s great season, there are some concerns going into what is likely to be a tricky game. The visitors edged out Reading 3-2 last weekend, which suggests they aren’t completely settled defensively.

The hosts will come into this with momentum, having won their last five games, scoring 16 goals. They’ve scored at least twice in seven straight home games, while they have a proven EFL talent leading the line. Will Grigg heads into this clash on fire once again, with eight goals to his name this term. The forward has netted in each of his last three games for Chesterfield and he can get the hosts on the scoresheet against Pompey.

The visitors have seen both teams score in nine of their last 12 games in all competitions and with both sides in-form going forward, back both teams to score.
