Wycombe vs Portsmouth prediction and betting tips on January 10, 2025
Game Prediction
Wycombe and Portsmouth will play in the 1/32 finals of the FA Cup on January 10, 2025. The hosts will try to use the field factor to compensate for the difference in class with the opponent from the Championship.
Our prediction for the match Wycombe vs Portsmouth
“The Blues” remained in the middle of the League One last season. Then they took 65 points and closed the top 10 in the final table. “Pompey” almost reached a hundred points in that draw (the team was 1 win short). Still, the club won 1st place and received the right to move up.
Speaking about the Championship, the newcomer is expectedly fighting for survival. And it cannot be called successful. John Mousinho’s wards rarely win (the first time was in mid-September) and almost half of the matches ended in defeat. As a result, the club is naturally in the relegation zone, although it was possible to gradually improve the performance by the end of 2024. In January, the team lost with a 0-1 score to Sunderland.
Bloomfield and his team have seriously improved their game. They even rose to the top and reached, taking into account the cup tournament, a series of 10 victories. Still, there were many misfires in December, and they even lost to Charlton. The previous round brought a 0-1 result in the confrontation with Huddersfield.
