Only a point separates Portsmouth and Cardiff, who are just above the EFL Championship relegation zone ahead of their matchday 32 meeting. This match at Fratton Park on Tuesday between the 20th-placed Pompey and the 19th-placed Bluebirds comes with our prediction of both teams scoring goals. Portsmouth’s 30 points from 31 matches puts them only two above the bottom three sides. Cardiff are one point above their hosts with a game in hand.
Portsmouth lost 2-1 at Sheffield United at the weekend for their third defeat in four matches. This sequence has left them clutching at straws in the battle to avoid relegation. Home form could be critical for Pompey, who have six wins and two draws from their last nine home league matches.
Cardiff won at Stoke last weekend in the FA Cup fourth round, advancing via penalties. That puts their recent record in the green, winning five and four of their last ten competitive matches. In the league too, they have three wins and four draws from their last eight matches.
The challenge for the Bluebirds is to find some winning moments on the road. They won just once away from home in this league campaign, although five draws from the last eight away league games prove they could be a stubborn team.

Our Portsmouth vs Cardiff Prediction
Portsmouth’s recent form in the league is wretched, with only one point won from their last four matches. That lone point has come at home against Burnley, and surprisingly, this venue has been a lucky charm for the Pompey, who have won four and drawn one of their last six league games here. The challenge is to step up against a Cardiff side that has only lost once across eight league games. Both teams have been in good scoring form nevertheless, and our Portsmouth v Cardiff prediction is both teams to score.
