Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest we don't have an obvious winner here, but good reason to think Portsmouth and Preston will score 2 or more goals between them. We've seen goals when they've gone head-to-head historically, and neither John Mousinho or Paul Heckingbottom has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s recently either. The bookies are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with odds of 1.29 equating to about a 74% probability.
