Liverpool vs Portsmouth
English Premier League, 1500 BST

Liverpool have lost now 3 domestic matches in a row (1-3 at Reading, 0-1 at home v Man United and 0-2 at Chelsea). They do welcome back skipper Steven Gerrard, but one important man is still out; defender Daniel Agger is still nursing a lenghty injury. His replacement, Hyypia, showed so many leaks in his partnership with Carragher. And now that the Red's home invincibility has gone against United last week, it's all to play for Pompey.
The guests managed 6 wins in their last 6 away games (100%), beating Blackburn (1-0), Newcastle (4-1) and Aston Villa (3-1) in the process. 
They have scored the most away goals in the English top flight, seventeen.
Usual goal scoring options will be on the field today, as Benjani will lead the frontline, and Kranjcar, Utaka, Muntari and Diop will come from behind to put the ball in the net.
Even though I fancy Portsmouth, I believe Liverpool will fight till the death for a point.

The safest most valuable bet is 3000 units 
on Portsmouth to score anytime throughout the game, at 4/7.
