John Mousinho will take the Blues to the Cherry Red Records Stadium on Tuesday, July 25 (7pm) – less than two weeks before their 2023-24 League One season kicks off.

It will be their first trip back to the League Two side since January 2022, when the side’s played out a goalless draw.

There, they’ll likely be reunited with former vice-captain Lee Brown, who joined the Dons shortly after that League One stalemate.

Five of Pompey’s pre-season opponents have now been confirmed, with Bognor (July 11), Gosport Borough (July 15), Hawks (July 16) and a Fratton Park game against Bristol City (July 29) all in the diary.

The Blues kick-off their schedule for their latest League One campaign with a five-day warm-weather training camp in Malaga, Spain, at the start of July.

A friendly is earmarked as part of that stay, with details set to be confirmed over the opponent.
