Ipswich Town will hope to get back to winning ways against a relegation-threatened Portsmouth, who have a strong home record, when the sides meet in this rescheduled matchday 26 in the Championship. This match at Fretton Park on Tuesday between the 20th-placed Pompey and the fourth-placed Tractor Boys comes with our prediction of both teams scoring goals.
With 33 points from 28 matches (W8, D9, L11), Portsmouth are four points above the relegation zone. Ipswich’s 51 points from 29 matches (W14, D9, L6) place them two points behind third after last weekend’s matches.
A 3-0 home win over West Brom continued Portsmouth’s revival, as they have now gone unbeaten in four league games (W2, D2). Even going a bit further back, they have lost only once in their last nine Championship matches (W4, D4).
Home record has been a reason for their renaissance, as Portsmouth have three wins and two draws from their last five league matches here.
Ipswich drew 1-1 at home against Preston last weekend to bounce back from a 3-1 defeat at Sheffield United. These two results have been preceded by an impressive six-game sequence (W5, D1) that kept them in the hunt for a top-two finish.
Away form is a concern, as the ‘Tractor Boys’ lost three out of their last six away league games (W1, D2, L3).

Our Portsmouth vs Ipswich Town Prediction
Ipswich responded to the defeat against Sheffield United with a home draw against Preston but would target full points here. With a top-two position a fair bit off, a defeat here against the relegation-threatened Portsmouth could hurt Ipswich’s promotion hopes. On the other hand, the hosts could be gunning to ride on their home form to get something out of this contest. They can be a dangerous side at this venue, as their last five visitors found out.
Goals remain the best option here, and our Portsmouth vs Ipswich Town prediction is BTTS.
