Pompey make the trip to west London this weekend to face QPR at Loftus Road.
The Blues head to the capital on Saturday on a disappointing run of form, which has seen them fail to win any of their previous five Championship matches.
John Mousinho continues to be affected by injuries, with Harvey Blair the latest to join the absent cohort as he sat out Monday’s defeat to Derby County with a groin issue.
With 10 players potentially missing out this weekend, we’ve taken a look at the current injury situation at Fratton Park and when the Blues’ missing players could return to the fold.
9. Andre Dozzell
Dozzell has been forced to sit out Pompey's previous five Championship matches due to an ankle problem sustained against Sheffield United in February. The midfielder is, though, expected to return to the fold after the international break and ease the load on Marlon Pack and Ebou Adams. Expected return: Norwich City (April 3). | Graham Hunt/ProSportsImages
10. Florian Bianchini
The Swansea City loanee remains absent due to tendonitis in his knee, which has kept him sidelined since November. Mousinho has made it clear the winger is still in pain and is still in the dark over a potential return date. It remains to be seen whether Bianchini has played his last game for the Blues, with nine games to go in his season-long loan at Fratton. Expected return: N/A. | Graham Hunt/ProSportsImages

11. Mark Kosznovszky
The Hungarian is another of Mousinho's long-term absentees due to an ongoing knee issue. Kosznovszky suffered ACL and MCL damage late into Pompey's triumph over Charlton Athletic in December, which will keep him out for the rest of the season. The midfielder has been pencilled in to complete his comeback at the back-end of the year. Expected return: November - December. | Graham Hunt/ProSportsImages
