Premiership - Manchester United vs Portsmouth Football betting preview

Manchester United V Portsmouth

Hard to look past Man Utd here. They are in irresistible form and it’s hard to see any team beating them at Old Trafford. 11 wins on the trot and they seem to brush aside some sides with ease. Goals are coming thick and fast with 13 in the last 4 weeks and certain players such as Ronaldo and Rooney are playing with massive confidence. Ronaldo is knocking them in for fun and his tally of 17 goals is amazing for a midfielder. Even at this early stage he looks like a cert for player of the year.

Scholes is back in the frame and his presence is a huge boost to United as his passing and distribution is second to none.

Portsmouth have enjoyed much more success on the road then at home which is unusual. However they have struggled against the top 4 but will fancy their chances of at least threatening United, especially with the news that Vidic is out.

I’m not going to over analyse this one too much.

Its very hard to see anything other than a Manchester United win here. However Pompey have scored in all but two of their away games and I think they can cause plenty of trouble to United tomorrow night.

Portsmouth remain in the top half of the table and have an away record that's bettered only by Chelsea, they've struggled badly in recent weeks.

Their last seven games have seen them suffer four defeats and they don't look the same side without players who are absent on international duty.

Overs looks like the best call for me as United look like scoring almost every time they go forward. Hopefully Portsmouth can get on the scoresheet but it wouldn’t surprise me if even United beat the overs on their own.

With Arsenal back in top spot anything other than 3 points will be viewed as a disaster and you can expect Manchester to attack from the start.

Interestingly the last 6 meetings between the two at Old Trafford have gone over 2.5 so the omens are good!

Overs at 1.73 looks like a reasonable call
