The festive football keeps coming for Pompey, who are back in action this evening against Charlton Athletic.
The Blues welcome the Addicks to the south coast to round off 2025 and are bidding to go into the new year outside of the Championship relegation zone.
Following Friday’s 1-1 draw against QPR, John Mousinho’s men occupy 22nd in the standings, while Nathan Jones’ side sit five points clear of the bottom three.
We’ve taken a look at the early team and injury news from both camps ahead of this evening’s fixture.
