Overall, Millwall consistently scores and creates chances, while Portsmouth doesn't excel in scoring, but both teams have relatively solid defenses.

Millwall averages 6 corners per match, Portsmouth 6.8. In the last five matches, over 9.5 corners occurred twice for each team. Considering the total corners, the closest value to the average sum (12.8) is 11.5. The line offers over 11.5 at 2.60 and under 11.5 at 1.33.

Millwall is favored on corners with odds of 1.56. Overall, both teams deliver a decent number of corners, but there aren't many high-scoring corner matches, making moderate totals a more logical choice.
