Prediction

  • Blackburn responded well to a frustrating defeat against Burnley, beating Middlesbrough 1-0 away from home in the FA Cup on Saturday afternoon. John Eustace needs to inspire some stable form as Rovers head into Wednesday night's game winless in five Championship matches.
  • Portsmouth have endured a difficult start to 2025, following up a narrow away defeat against promotion-chasing Sunderland with a disappointing 2-0 away defeat against Wycombe in the FA Cup. John Mousinho's side sit one place above the relegation zone and have lost three of their last four Championship fixtures.
