The aim is back-to-back successes on the road in a testing encounter with Joey Barton’s side.
Pompey have players returning to fitness for the clash, but have lost the services of Joe Pigott for three games after his red card at the Crown Ground.
Here’s how we think John Mousinho’s side will line up at the Memorial Ground.

. GK - Matt Macey
Carry on Macey. The keeper continues to look an asset and hopefully one with a Pompey future. Photo: Jason Brown
. RB - Joe Rafferty
More of a defensive mission at Accrington, will hope to offer more going forward this weekend. Photo: Jason Brown
. CB - Sean Raggett
A colossus at Accrington. More of the same will be required at the Memorial Ground. Photo: Jason Brown
. CB - Ryley Towler
The challenge is to maintain the level he's set early on at Fratton - always a challenge for young players as they make the first-team breakthrough. Photo: Jason Brown
. LB - Connor Ogilvie
Is there a more dependable and consistent player in this Pompey squad? Probably not. Photo: Jason Brown
. CM - Joe Morrell
Nous and experience was to the fore at Accrington. The same expected this weekend. Photo: Jason Brown
