Yeovil Town vs Portsmouth Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

We are backing both teams to score when Yeovil host Portsmouth on Friday night and this is available at 10/11 with bet365. For our correct score tip we anticipate quite a tight match before Pompey show their quality to run out with a 2-1 win and this is available priced at 15/2 with the same site.

Yeovil will be looking to end 2016 with a bit of a bang after a topsy turvy period has seen them sit fairly comfortable in mid-table in League Two. The Glovers have one of the best home records in the division with only four teams having a better return in front of their own fans. They have also only failed to score in 32% of their league fixtures this year but having failed to find the back of the net in their previous two home games they will have a point to prove to the bumper crowd expected a Huish Park.

Pompey have been excellent on their travels this season but they were pushed all the way by bottom of the table Newport County on Boxing Day. Only a late comeback saw them take all three points on that day but the result was something of a marker to their recent form on the road, they have only managed one clean sheet in their previous four away fixtures in the league.

One of the big factors we considered when researching this tip is the head to head record between these sides as only one of the six meetings between these teams has seen a result in which a side has failed to score. This fixture usually brings goals and it averages at 3.17 goals per game.
