The Hawthorns is the setting for a fascinating round 3 clash in the English Championship as West Brom take on Portsmouth. Both teams have a lot to prove, but they enter this contest in completely different form. Read on to discover our best West Brom vs Portsmouth match prediction.
The Baggies are flying high after a perfect start to the season, while Pompey is reeling from two consecutive defeats. Given the history between these two sides and their current momentum, this match has all the makings of a comfortable home victory. Everything points to a dominant West Brom win, and it’s hard to argue against it.
The Baggies have been sensational so far, winning both of their opening Championship games against a tough Blackburn side and a tricky away trip to Wrexham. This positive momentum is a stark contrast to Portsmouth, who have lost both of their opening games this season. More tellingly, Pompey has struggled mightily in recent away games, losing six of their last ten.
West Brom’s home form has been stellar, with eight wins, three losses, and two draws in their last 13 Championship home games. This trend is further supported by their historical dominance over Portsmouth, with West Brom not having lost to them at home in over 20 years. Their last two meetings also ended in comfortable victories for The West Brom, with scorelines of 5-1 and 3-0 last season.
