Portsmouth vs Millwall predictions for today’s 12.30pm (UK time) kick-off at Fratton Park back Portsmouth to win 2-1, with Marko Milovanovic 7/4 to score against a Millwall side level with them on 15 Championship points and beaten 3-1 home and away by Pompey last season.
Portsmouth are 13th and Millwall 12th, separated only by goals scored after both reached 15 points from 11 matches. Fratton Park has produced some open, high-scoring afternoons this season, and the two sides’ recent history adds some needle.
The hosts are marginal favourites at 6/4, with Millwall at 15/8 and the draw 12/5. Below are our predictions grid, two premium tips and a score prediction.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson leans towards a home win in a close contest, and his two tips for Portsmouth vs Millwall back Pompey’s cutting edge and the open nature of the fixture.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Marko Milovanovic to score anytime | 7/4 (bet365) | Portsmouth have scored eight goals across their five home games this season and carry enough firepower to edge a tight one. Marko Milovanovic heads the market as the hosts’ likeliest scorer, and the forward should fancy his chances against a Millwall defence that has shipped 10 in five away games. Pompey beat Sheffield United 3-2 at Fratton Park earlier this term and have the attacking threat to trouble a Lions side that keeps drawing its matches. At 7/4 with bet365, Milovanovic to find the net anytime is our way of siding with Portsmouth’s cutting edge in a game we expect them to shade. |
| Lyndon Dykes to score anytime | 27/10 (Ladbrokes) | Lyndon Dykes is Millwall’s top scorer with four Championship goals, one of them a penalty, and he started up front in their last game. Portsmouth have conceded nine goals in five home matches and have kept only three clean sheets all season. Eight of Millwall’s 11 games have produced three or more goals, so this should not be a quiet afternoon for the visiting attack. Ladbrokes’ 27/10 on Dykes scoring at any time is our bigger-price pick. |

How Portsmouth go into the game
Portsmouth are 13th on 15 points, a record of four wins, three draws and four defeats. Last time out they drew 1-1 away at Wolves; before that they won 1-0 at Norwich, beat Sheffield United 3-2 at home, lost 1-0 away at Southampton and drew 2-2 at home with Blackburn.
Pompey carry a level goal difference and have been entertaining on their own turf, scoring eight but conceding nine across five home games (2W-1D-2L). The attacking tools are there; the defence has been the issue when results have slipped.
How Millwall go into the game
Millwall are 12th on 15 points, also with four wins, three draws and four defeats. Last time out they drew 2-2 at home with Lincoln; before that they lost 1-0 at home to Swansea, won 1-0 away at Preston, drew 2-2 at home with West Ham and drew 2-2 away at Middlesbrough.
The Lions have drawn plenty and sit on a level goal difference of their own, but travel has been a mixed bag: two wins, one draw and two defeats on the road, with 10 conceded in those five away games. They score regularly enough to keep most games alive.
Portsmouth vs Millwall head-to-head

|---|---|---|---|
| 21/02/26 | Millwall | 1-3 | Portsmouth |

| 05/04/25 | Millwall | 2-1 | Portsmouth |
| 28/01/25 | Portsmouth | 0-1 | Millwall |
Portsmouth have the upper hand lately, winning both meetings last season: 3-1 at The Den in February 2026 and 3-1 at Fratton Park in November 2025. Before that it was Millwall’s turn, with a 2-1 home win in April 2025 and a 1-0 success at Fratton Park in January 2025, so this fixture has swung back and forth.
