Portsmouth will welcome Preston North End to Fratton Park on Saturday afternoon for a match in the Championship. Pompey is struggling this season in 24th while the visiting Lilywhites are not doing much better in 20th. Two sides in need of the points here but what's the play here? Read our prediction to find out.
Most of the limited damage that Portsmouth have done has come away from home. They are yet to win on their own soil this season and have not been as sharp in front of the net as they have been on the road. They have let a lead slip in their last two at home.
Preston has only had one away game in their last six, coughing up a 3-0 lead at Plymouth to leave with just a point. Defensively they have been a disaster of late, conceding eight times in their last three home games in all competitions prior to a much-needed 0-0 draw in midweek.
Portsmouth have been poor but they are capable of finding the back of the net so Preston is going to have to find a way to defend much better than they have been. They are yet to win on the road, conceding 13 in six.

Our Portsmouth vs Preston North End Prediction
Neither of these sides has been good at keeping the ball out of their own net in recent games. While Portsmouth have found it hard to score at home, a visit from Preston could be the perfect time for them to get themselves out of a slump.
11 goals conceded in their last five games is a disappointing stat for Preston while Pompey has shipped more than any other team in the division. There should be some goals again at Fratton Park so our Portsmouth vs Preston prediction is for both teams to score.
