Recent respective form guides

Portsmouth's home form is most definitely relegation standard, collecting just 1 solitary point from the last six. While Pompey have scored 7, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.

Carlisle United's away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the Cumbrians have hit 6 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Portsmouth are stuck down in the relegation zone of npower League One with a return of just 22 points from their 31 games thus far.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Nothing seems to be going right for the Pompey at home recently, and we can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Cumbrians come away with an easy victory. Away win
