Tip Reasoning
For our betting tip we are going to back Portsmouth to win and under 2.5 goals when they face Mansfield this weekend and with bet365 offering odds at 5/2 it looks to be a bet that will return a good profit. For our correct score tip we think Pompey will emerge with a 1-0 win and this is available at 5/1 with the same site.
Portsmouth had an excellent home record but their last two results in the league at Fratton Park haven’t gone to plan. Defeats to Doncaster and Notts County means that Paul Cook will likely want to return back to the things that were serving his side so well earlier in the season. Those previous successes were built on the back of a solid defence and they have managed to keep a clean sheet in 40% of their fixtures this season.
Like their hosts, Mansfield have one of the best defensive records in the division and the 15 goals they have conceded this season is the second best in all of League Two. The trouble they have found is that they have not been able to turn the screw at the other end of the pitch, they have only managed to score 15 goals in as many games.
We are further convinced by the head to head between these two sides, only one of the previous five meetings between the sides have seen a total of over 2.5 goals.
