Birmingham City and Portsmouth will be facing off in matchday 46 action in the Championship. The two have nothing much but pride to play for, having secured their stays in the championship. Birmingham, placed 10th, will be traveling to 18th-placed Portsmouth, and below is our match prediction.
Portsmouth have gone on a fine run in recent weeks to hit 54 points, seven above the bottom three, lifting themselves from a potential relegation scrap. They won four of their last five matches, most recently beating Stoke City 3-1.
In this stretch, they only lost to champions Coventry. Pompey will take encouragement from their attacking form, having only failed to score once in the last 10 games.
Birmingham recorded a 4-0 win in the reverse fixture to post a first victory over Portsmouth in three meetings. They’ve won this fixture three times in the last five meetings and will be looking to extend that, boosted by a four-game unbeaten streak ahead of the clash.
The Blues are coming off a 2-1 win against Bristol City, a second straight win with the same scoreline. Most importantly, this win secured them a top-half finish.
The visitors haven’t had a strong run on the road, winning just five of 22 in the league, but will be hopeful of a strong finish.
