Portsmouth’s Good Friday outing will see them travel to Norwich for a round 40 Championship game. This match finds Norwich placed 10th, nine points adrift of the top six while Portsmouth sit just a point above the relegation region. Read on to find our prediction.
Under Philippe Clement, Norwich have been in great shape. The Canaries come here on five wins in their last six league matches. ahead of the international break, they beat Charlton 1-0 on the road and they come here with three straight home wins.
Seven times in their last eight home games, Norwich scored 2+ goals. They beat Portsmouth 2-1 in August and will be targeting a league double over Pompey for the first time since 1996/97.
Portsmouth are looking to rise away from the drop zone, which makes each of their remaining games crucial. Their ambitions, however, do not tally with their recent performances.
The visitors are on a run of six winless outings, and only managed only point from a possible 18 in the process. They suffered a heavy defeat in their latest outing, falling 6-1 to QPR and will hope to have reorganized during the international break.
Norwich will not be an easy opponent even though Pompey won their last two away league games against Norwich. In 19 away league outings this season, Portsmouth managed just four wins.

Our Norwich vs Portsmouth Prediction
Portsmouth are running out of time in their push for survival. This will be another tough outing for the side with only 10 league wins this season. Their form ahead of this particular encounter has been poor and yet they meet an in-form host.
Under Philippe Clement, no team has won more Championship matches than the Canaries (14) and it will be a shocker if they fail here. the hosts have posted five wins in their last six league matches and we’ll back them here too. Our prediction for Norwich v Portsmouth is that Norwich wins.
