Pompey will be looking to pick up their first Championship victory in more than a month as they welcome Watford to Fratton Park this evening.
The Blues have suffered back-to-back defeats in the league for the first time this season and return to home soil following Saturday’s trip to Ipswich Town.
John Mousinho is facing a number of huge calls, with injuries becoming a real concern early in the season.
Here’s how we predict Pompey to line-up against the Hornets this evening.

15. SUB 3: Hayden Matthews

16. SUB 4: Terry Devlin
Was an unused substitute on Saturday but Mousinho loves having the Northern Ireland talent on his bench and will be ready to make an impact if required. Photo: Simon Roe
