Team Form and Statistics

Sheffield United's recent form has been impressive, with 6 wins, 3 losses, and 1 draw in their last 10 matches. In contrast, Portsmouth has managed only 3 wins, 6 losses, and 1 draw in their last 10 games. The goal averages also suggest a home win is likely, with Sheffield United scoring an average of 1.1 goals per game and Portsmouth averaging 1 goal per game.

Portsmouth's matches end with an average of 2.7 total goals scored by all teams combined, with 60% of their matches ending with Over 2.5 goals. However, given Sheffield United's low goal-scoring average at home and Portsmouth's poor away form, it's essential to consider the value of the bet.

Considering the statistics and goal averages, the Under 2.5 result seems a more likely outcome, given Sheffield United's low goal-scoring average at home and Portsmouth's poor away form.
