The meetings between these two teams go back many years. Portsmouth have come away from Molineux with a 1-0 win and have also thrashed them 3-1 at home, but this time the picture is different, because Wolves are in a period of building their league form, while Portsmouth are trying to keep their form going. Wolves have just won 2-1 in their latest match, but overall their last five games have not been steady. The attack offers something to cheer about, but the defence still shows gaps. Portsmouth themselves have won two in a row, their defence clearly tighter after keeping a clean sheet in their latest match, and before that they drew with goals. If Portsmouth score first, Wolves will have to open up more, which could give Portsmouth's defence, now finding its rhythm, space to counter, and the game could end with Wolves unable to catch up or squeezing out only a draw.
