Wolves arrive at this Championship round-6 fixture having won 2 of their last 5 across all competitions, but they carry a heavy injury list - six players unavailable - and have conceded in 4 of those 5 outings. Portsmouth, by contrast, are in decent nick: 2 wins, 2 draws and only 1 defeat in their last 5, with 2 clean sheets kept. The visitors travel with confidence, though their attack has scored in just 3 of those 5 matches.
The numbers tilt cautiously toward Wolves. The model puts their win probability at 48%, with a home-or-draw figure of 74%. Portsmouth's away record is solid but unspectacular, and the market prices Wolves at around 1.53-1.62 in a 1X2 context. Draw No Bet removes the draw risk at a sensible entry point.
With no head-to-head data available and both sides carrying injury concerns, DNB on Wolves at approximately 1.21 (bet365 ah0_1) is the play. It covers the most likely outcome without exposure to a stalemate. Alt: BTTS NO at 1.91-1.95, given both sides have scored in only 3 of their last 5.
