Just over 40,000 Pompey fans will descend onto the West end of Wembley on Sunday - but does that bring a good omen?
There has been some suggestion of a ‘lucky end’ - so we’ve gone back all the way to the first-ever Johnstone's Paint Trophy Final in 2008 through to last year's Checkatrade Trophy final to find out. Click and scroll through the pages...
Portsmouth are going to Wembley!
MK Dons claimed a 2-0 win over Grimsby Town courtesy of two late goals from Keith Andrews and Sean O'Hanlon.
Luton Town and Scunthorpe played out a thriller, with the Hatters snatching the trophy in the fifth minute of extra-time.
In a Southampton side that possessed Rickie Lambert, Michail Antonio and Adam Lallana, the Saints cruised to a 4-1 win over Carlisle United.
Having tasted defeat a year earlier, Carlisle returned to Wembley, this time situated in the East end. They won 1-0 after Peter Murphy's volley.
Chesterfield emerged as 2-0 winners over a Swindon side managed by former Sunderland boss Pablo Di Canio.
