Back your side with Sky Bet
Pompey will look to start the season with a bang by beating Carlisle this weekend.
And Paul Cook’s side are 4/5 favourites with Sky Bet to open the campaign with a three-point haul.
The visitors – who finished 10th in League Two last term – can be backed at 7/2, with the draw at 5/2.
Michael Smith is favourite to bag the first goal at 5/1 after completing a permanent switch to Fratton Park over the summer.
Elsewhere in the first scorer market, Conor Chaplin, Gary Roberts and Carl Baker can be backed at 11/2, 13/2 and 17/2 respectively.
A 1-0 Blues triumph is available at 11/2, although more optimistic punters might instead fancy the 33/1 on offer for a 4-0 victory.
In the outright markets, Pompey are favourites to win promotion and the title at evens and 4/1 respectively.
