Championship football is coming thick and fast for Pompey, who face relegation rivals Charlton Athletic this evening.
The Blues will be looking for a much-needed return to winning ways following successive 1-0 defeats to both Preston North End and Sheffield United.
The game was, of course, rearranged following December’s postponement following a medical emergency just 10 minutes into the original fixture.
A win this evening could move John Mousinho’s men four points clear of the bottom three, while Charlton go into the contest off the back of a clear weekend with no Championship or FA Cup involvement.
We’ve taken a look at the early team and injury news from both camps ahead of tonight’s crucial contest at The Valley.
