Gary Johnson's side took six points from six over the Christmas period

Bristol City manager Gary Johnson believes Portsmouth are favourites for Saturday's FA Cup third round tie, depite their contrasting form.

Portsmouth have lost four successive league games, while City have won their last two matches.

Johnson told BBC Radio Bristol: "It's going to be a very difficult game for us. We're going to have to play really well at Portsmouth to get a result.

"We're going to try to beat them and we are going to enjoy trying to do it."
