Southampton will be looking to return to winning ways in the EFL Championship when they welcome 19th-placed Portsmouth to St. Mary's Stadium on matchday nine. With the hosts having failed to keep a clean sheet in their last eight league matches and the visitors finding the net in three of their previous four meetings in this fixture, our prediction is for both teams to score.
Southampton entered the international break in a bitter mood. A 2-1 away defeat to Wrexham last time out saw them drop from ninth to 13th place in the league standings.
The Saints will be hoping to bounce back with a positive result in front of their home crowd. At St. Mary's Stadium this season, they have won four straight league games and boast the best home record in the Championship.
Nevertheless, Portsmouth have proved difficult to beat, with the hosts still seeking their first home league victory after two consecutive draws in this fixture.
John Mousinho's men have avoided defeat in their last three league games. Unlike their opponents, they snatched a point in a thrilling 2-2 home draw against Blackburn.
That result extended Portsmouth's unbeaten run to three games. This follows back-to-back defeats to Bristol City and Derby.
However, maintaining that unbeaten run could prove arduous, as Pompey are winless in their last two away games.

Our Southampton vs Portsmouth Prediction
Southampton have endured a difficult period when playing against Portsmouth in the EFL Championship. They remain winless in their last four meetings, with each encounter ending in a draw. Both teams scored in three of those outings, suggesting a similar outcome.
Additionally, the home side has struggled to keep a clean sheet in each of their last eight league games this season. This should see a Portsmouth side that has scored in five of their last seven matches find the back of the net here in what could be a score draw. Our Southampton vs Portsmouth prediction: BTTS.
