• Portsmouth won three of the last four H2Hs, including both away editions.

Play-off chasing Portsmouth to leave Lincoln in their wake

This game was not the easiest to call by any means, mainly because of the solid form of both teams. Lincoln are unbeaten in five games but one of those victories must be taken with a grain of salt as it came against seventh-tier Isthmian League opponents in the FA Cup and they only managed to scrape past them with a 1-0 score line!

As for the visitors, Portsmouth have put a three-game losing streak well and truly behind them with a seven game run without defeat. I predict that they will carry on their current four game winning streak here at a tempting price. In fact, only two sides picked up more points than Portsmouth across the last five rounds and getting a price stronger than evens about such an in-form side must be taken at small stakes or in an acca for the sensible punters amongst us.

As for the correct score prediction, I think Lincoln will push Portsmouth all the way given the visitors’ poor away form. However, I am backing Portsmouth to register just their third away league win of the season with a narrow 2-1 margin as they look to transfer their overall form to their travels. Notably though, a return of just one clean sheet across their last eight away games suggests this will not be a walk in the park for Pompey.
