We’re Keen on Blades to Cover the Line

There’s a case for backing Sheffield United -1 at odds of 1.88, meaning money back if they beat Portsmouth by a single goal. A victory by two goals or more would land a nice return with this Asian Handicap wager.

Goalless Draw in Pair’s Last Meeting

Sheffield United won their last game. It was on the road where Derby County were beaten 1-0 at Pride Park. The Blades enjoyed 50% possession and had three shots on target, with an early second half strike from Ben Brereton Diaz proving the difference.

Portsmouth played Burnley at home in their previous game. It was a 0-0 draw at Fratton Park. The Hampshire side were restricted to 41% possession and had three shots on goal.

It was a 0-0 draw when Portsmouth and United last clashed, with the former hosting this head-to-head at Fratton Park.
