The Blues secured a vital 1-0 victory over Blackburn last weekend, yet the head coach has opted to make alterations at The Den.

Jordan Williams, who is handed his first start since January, comes in for Zak Swanson at right-back, with the in-form defender not included in the match-day squad.

Pompey: Schmid, Williams, Poole, Ogilvie, Bramall, Potts, Dozzell, Ritchie, Devlin, Murphy, Bishop.
