For over 2.5 total goals: both teams have 2 out of 5 matches over, and 3 out of 5 under. By halves: Norwich City has 2 out of 5 over 1.5 in the first half, 1 out of 5 in the second. Portsmouth: 2 out of 5 over 1.5 in the first half, 2 out of 5 in the second. For scoring intervals, Norwich City scores mostly between 31-45 minutes (38%), Portsmouth between 76-90 minutes (38%). For goals conceded: Norwich City concedes mostly in the first 30 minutes (50% in two intervals), Portsmouth at the end of the first half (31-45, 33%). Both teams' goal totals do not strongly lean towards over or under, but Portsmouth's low scoring with high conceding rate makes under 2.5 at 1.75 a logical bet: both teams have 3 out of 5 matches under, average goals do not exceed 2.8, and Norwich City is exactly 2. Also, Portsmouth has only 0.6 goals per game over 5 matches, further reducing the likelihood of a high-scoring game.
