Pompey are back in action this Saturday as they welcome Cardiff City to Fratton Park.
It’s been a tough start to the campaign at PO4, with John Mousinho’s new-look side picking just one win in their opening four league matches.
The Blues currently sit 21st in the early-season standings following a 2-0 defeat to Derby County in midweek.
The head coach will be searching for an instant response from his troops but will be boosted by the deadline day additions of Jayden Meghoma and Tyrese Shade.
With changes expected, here’s how we think the Blues could line-up against Brian Barry-Murphy’s newly-promoted side this Saturday.
9. RW: Abu Kamara
Man of the match on Tuesday and is enjoying football with a smile on his face again. Nailed down the right-wing position as his own. | Jason Brown
10. CAM: Adrian Segecic
Despite some late-window interest, Pompey were able to keep hold of last season's top scorer. Segecic has two in the opening five matches and will be looking to continue his bright start on Saturday. | Jason Brown
11. LW: Ryan Kavuma-McQueen
Kavuma-McQueen has had a frenetic start to life in the Championship and has shown why the Blues made the move to land him. Plenty of weight on his shoulders, however, with Josh Murphy, Keshi Anderson and Franco Umeh all currently injured. | Jason Brown
12. ST: Marko Milovanovic
A positive debut for the €5m arrival on Tuesday and looked a threat against Derby. Was withdrawn due to cramp but Mousinho is ready to unleash the Serb once again this weekend. | Jason Brown
