Portsmouth vs Charlton Odds

The odds are updated on a frequent basis. You might therefore find that they are different to the ones listed for the above betting predictions.

Bookies Expecting Close Encounter

Portsmouth are the shortest price to win this Championship clash according to the bookies, with the favourites given a 43% probability due to their +130 betting odds. Charlton Athletic are trading at a bigger price than their opponents and the outsiders can be backed at +205.

There’s a nice alternative in the form of the Half-Time Result market. This allows you to back Portsmouth at +195 to lead at the break or alternatively opt for Charlton at +260. The draw is the third option at +108.

A low-scoring contest will be predicted by several which is reflected in the fact that Under 2.5 Goals has the shortest odds. If you anticipate that a minimum of one side can manage a clean sheet, you might want to take the -127 about Both Teams to Score No.

The top football betting sites definitely give customers lots of choice. When it comes to Championship games, choose from hundreds of markets until you find the most attractive odds.
