The campaign kicks off tomorrow at a packed Fratton Park against Joey Barton’s Bristol Rovers.
But how will Pompey line up as John Mousinho begins he first full season at the helm? Here’s how we think he is likely to go.
13. Sub: Ryan Schofield
Given his experience, fair to say Schofield represents a step up in competition for Norris as he pushes for the No1 spot. Photo: Jason Brown
14. Sub: Zak Swanson
Shown he's got the quality and talent to start as he aims to displace Joe Rafferty. Photo: Jason Brown
15. Sub: Conor Shaughnessy
Could easily start after showing his attributes and ability to step out with the ball in pre-season. Close call with Towler. Photo: Jason Brown
16. Sub: Ben Stevenson
Currently appears to be the next cab off the rank when it comes to a holding midfield role. Photo: Jason Brown
