Our Tips

Norway to Win with a Clean Sheet
8/15 - odds when tipped

Reasoning
Norway’s attacking strength, led by Haaland and Nusa, alongside Kazakhstan’s poor defensive record and goalless campaign, points to a dominant home victory. Norway’s solid defence further ensures a clean sheet.

Reasoning
Norway’s recent form and Kazakhstan’s defensive struggles point to a dominant 4-0 home win. Haaland and Nusa, supported by Sørloth and Solbakken, should exploit defensive gaps for a convincing victory.

The tension is palpable as Plymouth Argyle gear up to host Portsmouth at Home Park this Tuesday night. Both teams find themselves mired in the relegation zone of the Championship table, with Plymouth sitting at 22nd and Portsmouth anchored at the very bottom. The stakes couldn’t be higher for this Dockyard Derby, a fixture steeped in history and rivalry. Fans on both sides are eagerly awaiting a clash that could very well define the trajectory of their season. With home advantage and a burning desire to climb out of the doldrums, can Plymouth seize this golden opportunity?

Best Bet: Plymouth Argyle to Win

We’re tipping Plymouth Argyle to secure a much-needed victory against Portsmouth.

Plymouth have shown glimpses of their potential this season, especially when playing at Home Park. Despite a rough patch recently, they’ve managed to collect 11 of their 12 points on home soil. This suggests that the familiarity and support of the home crowd give them that extra edge they desperately need.

Portsmouth, on the other hand, have struggled mightily, especially away from home. They’ve secured only six points on the road and have conceded a whopping 17 goals in just seven away matches. Their defence seems porous, and against a Plymouth side that’s scored 12 of their 13 goals at home, this could spell trouble.

Moreover, the psychological advantage leans towards Plymouth. They haven’t lost to Portsmouth in their last seven meetings, a streak that undoubtedly plays on the minds of both sets of players. The historical data shows that Plymouth often rises to the occasion in these derby matches.

“Plymouth’s home form is their lifeline this season,” says BettingTips4You.com expert Graham Hartshorn. “Against a Portsmouth side that’s leaking goals away from home, the Greens have a prime opportunity to not just win, but to make a statement.”

Considering the attacking prowess of players like Morgan Whittaker and Ibrahim Cissoko, who have been instrumental in Plymouth’s home successes, the odds tilt even more in their favour. The team is also likely to be fired up to break their four-match winless streak, and there’s no better way to do it than against their rivals.

Correct Score Prediction: Plymouth Argyle 2-1 Portsmouth

We anticipate a closely contested match ending with Plymouth edging out Portsmouth 2-1.

Both teams have had defensive frailties this season, which suggests that goals are on the cards. Plymouth’s home games have been particularly high-scoring affairs, with three of their last four matches at Home Park producing over 3.5 goals. Portsmouth’s away games are not far behind, averaging nearly four goals per match.

Given that both teams are desperate for a win, we can expect an open game with plenty of attacking intent. However, Plymouth’s superior home form and psychological advantage should see them outscore Portsmouth by a narrow margin.
