Portsmouth v Coventry – all you need to know about today’s clash

Here’s all the key information ahead of the Fratton Park clash…

Pompey team news

Kenny Jackett has to decide whether he’ll reinstall Ronan Curtis on the left wing.

The Irishman was dropped to the bench for Gareth Evans in Good Friday’s 2-1 victory at Burton.

However, Curtis made an impact when he replaced Evans in the 76th minute, with his cross leading to Matt Clarke’s stoppage-time winner.

The Pompey boss may also add fresh legs into his line-up, depending how players have recovered from the Pirelli Road triumph.

Dion Donohue and Lloyd Isgrove (both groin) remain sidelined.

They could be fit for the trip to Sunderland on Saturday, however.

Likely line-up (4-2-3-1)

Craig MacGillivray, Nathan Thompson, Christian Burgess, Matt Clarke, Lee Brown, Tom Naylor, Ben Close, Jamal Lowe, Brett Pitman, Ronan Curtis, Oli Hawkins

Subs: Alex Bass, Anton Walkes, Brandon Haunstrup, Bryn Morris, Gareth Evans, Viv Solomon-Otabor, Omar Bogle

Coventry team news

Brandon Mason is a doubt for Mark Robins' side.

The left-back limped out of the Sky Blues’ 5-4 win against Sunderland.

Jordan Willis made his comeback to the bench in Coventry’s 2-0 win over Bradford on Good Friday.

The centre-half had missed the past two games with a knee problem but was an unused substitute against the Bantams.

Tom Bayliss is out for the remainder of the season with a broken wrist, while David Meyler hasn’t featured since dislocating his shoulder in the goalless draw with Bristol Rovers earlier this month.

Likely line-up (4-2-3-1)

Lee Burge, Dujon Sterling, Tom Davies, Dominic Hyam, Sam McCallum, Liam Kelly, Luke Thomas, Jordan Shipley, Jordy Hiwula, Amadou Bakayoko, Bright Enobakhare

Subs: Corey Addai, Jordan Willis, Junior Brown, Zain Westbrooke, Charlie Wakefield, Jordan Ponticelli, Conor Chaplin

Referee: Darren Drysdale (Lincolnshire)
