The Blues have been beset by injury issues going into the game at Kenilworth - a match would take John Mousinho’s side a giant step closer to Championship survival.
With Mousinho staying tight-lipped over the extent of the issues for the likes of Rob Atkinson, Hayden Matthews, Isaac Hayden and Zak Swanson there’s plenty of selection intrigue going into the game.
This is how we think Pompey will line up as they aim for their fourth win on the bounce.

A lot of Pompey fans will have Towler down as a starter if Matthews and Atkinson don't make it. Could well be the case, but has been out of recent squads. | Jason Brown/ProSportsImages

15. Sub 3: Cohen Bramall
Starting Bramall and using Ogilvie in the middle is an option, whatever happens will likely play some kind of role in the game. Photo: Jason Brown
