He will also know that Cardiff have only conceded two goals in their FA Cup run and they were against Semi- Professionals of Chasetown and then Hereford in rounds 3 & 4 respectively. Portsmouth have not been at their best recently and if they are to win, then they will need to play well as Cardiff are not the pushover’s, the Odds suggest. They play a good game of football and have the knowledge that they have nothing to lose. They can really go out and enjoy the occasion. Dave Jones, the Cardiff Manager, is very astute and will have worked out tactics that will test Portsmouth to the full. He has some excellent players and his talisman, Jimmy Hasselbank is a great motivator, on and off the field, he will be a big inspiration to the team. He also has attractive 8/1 odds to score the first goal.
Portsmouth of course can cap a very good season with a win. Although their form has been a little indifferent of late, the final of the FA Cup should be enough to motivate any team. If not then they should think about the automatic qualification for the EUFA Cup next season. That very lucrative prize beckons both teams, but one would think that Pompey would be better equipped for such a challenge. It is a big incentive for both teams.
Portsmouth are 1/3 to win while Cardiff are 5/2.
