Portsmouth vs Hull Prediction, Betting Tips, Lineups & Odds | 03 May 2025

Portsmouth and survival-chasing Hull might not combine to reach the three-goal mark and that leads us to wager Under 2.5 on the Total Goals market. We’ll happily take the -110 when it comes to a low-scoring contest.

Portsmouth played out a 1-1 draw in their last game. This was on the road at Hillsborough against Sheffield Wednesday. Pompey had just 37% possession and recorded one shot on target, with Harvey Blair getting the goal.

Hull City have had back-to-back road losses. In the previous game, they suffered a 1-0 home defeat against Derby County at MKM Stadium. Ruben Selles' side enjoyed 63% possession and had two shots on goal.

Head-to-Head Statistics

The most recent clash between the teams saw Portsmouth draw 1-1 away to Hull at MKM Stadium. The past 3 H2H meetings have seen Portsmouth triumphing once, one draw and a win for Hull.
