Prediction

  • A long-range strike from Scott Twine was all that separated the sides at full time on Boxing Day as Bristol City edged a 1-0 home win against a struggling Luton side.
  • That victory ended a four-match winless streak and means that the home side have taken seven points from their last three league fixtures at Ashton Gate.
  • Portsmouth were on course for an impressive away point against a Watford side who remain unbeaten at home this season before Rocco Vata scored for the Hornets deep into stoppage time.
  • John Mousinho's men have lost two of their last three league games, but performance levels remain strong in the away camp.
